To be published in 14 volumes over the next 12 years, the Flora of North America is an indispensable working resource for anyone with an interest in the distribution, habitat, morphology, and survival of the wide-ranging plant life in North America.

This introductory volume presents information on the physical and biological factors that have affected the evolution and distribution of plant life of North America. Current knowledge on geography, paleofloristics, and human impact is summarized, distilling the original field work of hundreds of contributors.

Beautifully illustrated, almost 100 drawings accompany the introductory essays, taken from various 19th and 20th century works. Chosen to illustrate plants mentioned within the text, they are also historical examples of the style and quality of botanical illustration from an earlier era to the present.

The complete collection will be an indispensable authoritative work for all botanical libraries and departments.
