Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The little book 'sea Monsters Unmasked,' recently issued as one Of the Handbooks in connection with the Great International Fisheries Exhibition has met with SO favourable a reception, that I have been honoured by the request to continue the subject, and to treat also Of some of the Fables of the Sea, which once were universally believed, and even now are not utterly extinct. The topic is not here exhausted. Other sea fables and fallacies might be mentioned and explained; but the amount Of letter-press, and the number of illustrations that can be printed without loss' for the small sun} of one Shilling - the price at which these Handbooks are uniformly published - is necessarily limited. I have, therefore, thought it better to endeavour to make each chapter as complete as possible than to crowd into the space allotted to me a greater variety of subjects less fully and carefully discussed.
