Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

In The Nature-Study Idea, Liberty Hyde Bailey articulated the
essence of a social movement, led by ordinary public-school
teachers, that lifted education out of the classroom and placed it
into firsthand contact with the natural world. The aim was simple
but revolutionary: sympathy with nature to increase the joy of
living and foster stewardship of the earth. This definitive edition
edited by John Linstrom reintroduces The Nature-Study
Idea as an environmental classic for our time. It provides
historical context through a wealth of related writings, and
introductory essays relate Bailey's vision to current work in
education and the intersection of climate change and culture. In
this period of planetary turmoil, Bailey's ambition to cultivate
wonder (in adults as well as children) and lead readers back into
the natural world is more important than ever.
A wonderful guide for anybody interested in learning the basics of
botany.
