[5] 372 pp including index. 6 9 1/4 inches tall, octavo. It was Marcus Petersen who rst published in his book. The Fur Traders and Fur Bearing Animals" something that was different from the material used by the authors of earlier fur books. Petersen, however, con ned himself principally to the fur-bearing animals and the characteristics and distinguishing properties of different furs. He was. however, the rst authority to compile a table giving the weights and the durability or wearing qualities of each fur and we believe that this table has been accepted as a standard by fur men everywhere. Mr. Petersen's idea of measuring the durability of all furs, with otter (natural and sea). as the standard fur skin, rated at 100. was something that proved to be of great help to the industry and added great value to his book." The Fur Trade Review, March 1921
