With over four hundred in-text illustrations to the fifth treatise by Peter Mark Roget. With eight plates to the first volume by Kirby, and fifteen to the second, collated and complete. The Bridgewater Treatises are a series of eight works on natural theology written by leading nineteenth century scientific figures.
