| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "Curious Creatures in Zoology" by John Ashton is a collection of zoological curiosities written in the late 19th century. The book compiles fascinating and often whimsical tales from the realms of natural history, exploring the unusual forms of animals and mythical creatures through a blend of old texts and illustrations. It's designed to engage the general reader with intriguing accounts that marry folklore with the natural world. The opening of the work presents a thoughtful preface where Ashton reflects on humans' changing perceptions of animals and the wonders of the natural world through history. It sets the stage for a journey into various oddities in zoology, hinting at a myriad of strange beings, including mythical creatures such as the Kraken and mermaids, as well as remarkable phenomena like the supposed existence of hairy men and one-eyed giants. Ashton emphasizes the disparity between ancient beliefs and modern understanding, creating a tone that is both nostalgic and inquisitive about the bizarre creatures of lore.
