Obliged for the new edition of The Andes.
Thanks for information, which will be useful if CD ever brings out a corrected edition of his book [Forms of flowers].
Has written down what he gathered from HF on Tibetan dogs. Would welcome a few more details at any time, as he knows of nothing parallel to it.
Thanks for the paper on Sterrha (McLachlan 1865).
Discusses JDB’s views on the spread of human-like creatures across the world, and the development of language.
