This plant catalogue is in two parts. The first, published in 1801,
provides a list, organised according to the Linnaean system, of the
hothouse and greenhouse plants in the newly established Botanic
Gardens at Glasnevin, near Dublin, and the second, from 1802, is a
guide to all the plants in the gardens, including the arboretum and
'Hortus tinctoria', where dye plants (important for the Irish linen
industry) were displayed, arranged according to the layout of the
different beds, and giving their Linnaean and common names. Both
parts are believed to have been written by Walter Wade (1740-1825),
a physician and enthusiastic botanist who had lobbied for the
establishment of a botanical garden on the site of the former
property of Thomas Tickell, poet and government administrator in
Ireland. The gardens were inaugurated in 1795, and these catalogues
form the earliest evidence of their considerable holdings of native
and exotic plants.
This is my personal testimony; told through photographs, Scripture,
personal thoughts and experiences. This book was inspired by these
questions once asked of me; "How can you serve a God that cannot be
seen or touched? How can you be sure God even exists.The answers
are; God does exist and I see Him everywhere I turn. This personal
testimony takes the form of a walk on the beaches of the Outer
Banks,a guided tour of sorts, where I point out to you, the reader
the many places I see God.My prayer is that, if you have trouble
seeing God in your life because of the shadows of the world; my
testimony may give you pause to consider where You may find God,
present and working through you.
