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.
Originally published in 1913, the aim is to illustrate and describe
every species, from the fern upwards, recognised as distinct by
botanists and growing wild within the area adopted, and to complete
the work within such moderate limits of size and cost as shall make
it accessible to the public generally, so that it may serve as an
independent handbook of our Northern Flora and as a work of general
reference. This is a fascinating read for any botanist with much of
the information still practical and useful today. 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.
