Excerpt from The Book North, American Toads and Frogs: With a Study of the Habits, and Life Histories of Those, of the Northeastern States Brief accounts of the species of other parts of North America were added later. These descriptions and the photographs accompanying them were made from living material shipped from various parts of the continent. This collection of material is in the American Museum of Natural History, New York, with the exception of specimens of Colour Plates XI and XV] which are in the National Museum at Washington. The Colour Plates were made from photographs from life, some of the plates representing eight or ten negatives. They were coloured from living material by Mr. Herbert L. Guild of Providence, working under the supervision of the author Owing to the careful work Of Mr. Guild on the originals and to the efforts of the Publishers to obtain accurate reproductions, these plates are unusually true to life. Of course, in many cases, the colour represented may be only one phase in a complex and changing colouration.
