Description
Conceived as a children's book illustration, with the accompanying text:
'A most remarkable mammal, is the Arabian Camel, known as the ship of the hot desert sands. With a temper much cursed and an incredible thirst it is the transport of the merchant caravans. It has been said in a fit, it is known to spit, and may bite or kick when it can, but although it's contrary, this humped dromedary, has been of much service to man.'
