Recommendation from Hon. Marshall P. Wilder, 

 President of the American Pomological Society : 



Gentlemen :— I have received a copy from Mr. Charles 

 Downing of the second revised edition of the "Fruits and 

 Fruit Trees of America." Ir. is the most oompi-ehen- 

 sive of anv similar work, in fact A COMPLETE ENCY- 

 CLOPEDIA OF AMERICAN POMOLOGY, brought dowD 

 to the present time. The original edition by liis brother, the 

 late Andrew Jackson Downing, popular as it ever has been, 

 is made doubly interesting aud useful by this revision, com- 

 prising the results of a I'j.ig life of critical observations. 

 As a work of reference it has no equal, and deserves a place 

 in the Library of every Pomologist in America.— MARSHALL 

 P. Wilder.
