Young Botanist: a Popular Guide to Elementary Botany. By T. S. RALPH, of the Linnean Society.
⁂ An excellent book for the young beginner. “The plan which has been adopted is as simple as the author has found it to be in his power to follow out. As few hard names as possible have been employed, and when so used will generally be found accompanied with some familiar expression which can be adopted as a substitute. The objects selected as illustrations are either easy of access as specimens of wild plants, or are common in gardens.”
⁂ Where any difficulty occurs in the supply, postage-stamps may be remitted direct to the Publisher, who will forward per return. Post Office Orders payable at 57, Piccadilly. Parcels to the value of 2l. sent carriage paid to any reasonable distance.
