"This is a comprehensive, practical guide to the construction, arrangement, and management of reptile enclosures, with detailed information on which reptiles are suitable as pets, how and where to squire them, their general management, and much more. Profusely illustrated and fill of useful information, ""The Vivarium"" will be of considerable utility to existing and prospective reptile owners, and would make for a fantastic addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: ""How to Make Vivaria"", ""Plants Suitable for Vivaria"", ""Tortoises"", ""Crocodiles"", ""Lizards"", ""Snakes"", ""Frogs"", ""Newts"", ""Fish-like Salamanders, Olms, &c"", et cetera. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction. First published in 1897."
