Jean-Henri Fabre is considered by many to be the father of modern entomology. He lived from 1823-1915, recording his research and reflections in the ten-volume work Souvenirs Entomologiques, from which the contents of The Life of the Spider have been compiled. The first volume of this set was written in 1879, he finished the tenth, and final, volume in 1909 when he was 86.
The Life of the Spider was first published in 1912. Clement B. Davis added 16 full-page illustrations, with 22 black and white drawings in 1919, which are included in this new and unabridged edition.
