This title is printed to order. This book may have been self-published. If so, we cannot guarantee the quality of the content. In the main most books will have gone through the editing process however some may not. We therefore suggest that you be aware of this before ordering this book. If in doubt check either the author or publisher’s details as we are unable to accept any returns unless they are faulty. Please contact us if you have any questions.

PREFACE: The plan of this work differs from that of the ordinary Botany. The method pursued is to introduce the pupil at once to the study of the plant itself, by means of elaborate illustrations, and living specimens. The parts and functions, together with the generic and specific characters of each plant, are pointed out and described. The thing being seen is then named. No new term is introduced until a necessity arises for its use….Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900’s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
