What some readers said: 



MR. W. BULL, Chelsea, London: "The amount of labor involved must 

 have been enormous. Please accept my congratulations." 



MR. C. C. HURST, Hinckley, Leicestershire: "An admirable work of 

 reference * * * * a never failing help." 



CURATOR W. B. LATHAM, Botanic Garden, Edgbaston, Birmingham: "I 

 must congratulate you on being the first to attempt such a work." 



MR. T. L. MEAD, Oviedo, Florida: "The catalogue part of your book 

 is certainly a monumental work, and with the promised supplement will be 

 simply invaluable and indispensable to every hybridizer who wishes to work 

 intelligently." 



MR. JAMES R. PITCHER, Shorthills, N. J.: " I found it of such absorb- 

 ing interest, that I did not lay it down until I had finished reading the entire 

 book. You prepared it with great care and correctness. * It 



should have a large sale when it becomes known that such a book is to be 

 had. * * The dedication of the book itself is a classic in its way.'' 



MR. J. E. ROTHWELL, Brookline, N. Y.: "I trust that you will keep 

 up your work, as it is a valuable aid to us, and encourages painstaking and 

 interest in the subject." 



MESSRS. JAMES VEITCH & SON, Chelsea, London: " We shall warmly 

 recommend your book." 



Mr. ALEX. WRIGHT, South Norwood Hill, London: "I have enjoyed 

 the reading of it. Your classification may be a little too far in advance 

 for some, but I think you are on the right road, and it must be adopted 

 sooner or later. No one can, on reading your book, but admire the perse- 

 verance and interest you have taken in your work."
