" We look upon the above work (' Edwards's Botanical Register,') to 

 be the only one of its kind capable of bearing the scrutinizing examination 

 of the Botanist in all its departments ; and for beauty of execution in its 

 plates and typography, it stands unrivalled by any whatever which have 

 come under our notice. It cannot fail to please every lover of this fashion- 

 able and interesting science, as well as admirers of beautiful works in 

 general."
