The book aims to present a comprehensive overview of British butterflies, detailing every native species along with insights into their development, structure, habits, localities, and methods of capture and preservation. The opening of the work introduces the author's intent to promote knowledge and appreciation of butterflies, describing them as "sunny creatures." Coleman outlines the book's structure, clarifying that it is designed to be accessible and informative for young entomologists. He emphasizes the charm of butterfly hunting, encourages readers to engage with nature, and provides detailed illustrations drawn from nature, carefully depicting species in their natural sizes. The first chapter begins with defining what constitutes a butterfly, distinguishing it from moths, and then delving into the various stages of a butterfly's life cycle, from egg to caterpillar to chrysalis, highlighting the fascinating intricacies of their development.
