On the Extent and Aims of a National Museum of Natural History: Including the Substance of a Discourse on that Subject, Delivered at the Royal Institution of Great Britain, on the Evening of Friday, April 26, 1861 - Cambridge Library Collection - Zoology

The establishment of a national Natural History Museum was an idea opposed almost unanimously by the scientific community when it was proposed by Richard Owen (1804–92) in 1859. This is the text of one of Professor Owen's many speeches, first published in 1862, advocating its cause.
