This major work, first published in 1950, is still considered the
classic book on the subject. It provides a comprehensive, critical
and well-illustrated survey of the portrayal of plants across over
three thousand years, at a more compact size. Of the first edition,
the poet and gardening writer, Vita Sackville-West said: "Let no
one think this is a book only for the specialist. It is essential
for the specialist, certainly, but it is also for all the
flower-lovers and all those who enjoy the by-ways of biography and
the added attraction of good writing". This edition contains 126
colour plates (more than twice as many as the first edition),
alongside 140 black-and-white illustrations. It invites the reader
to appreciate the works of the greatest botanical illustrators both
past and present.
