" It is a great gain to botanists to have in our language so admirable a presentation of the 

 important facts connected with the structure and organisation of the palaeozoic plants." 

 Journal of Botany. 



" Dr. Scott does not give a table of genealogy of the plants with which he deals, but con- 

 tents himself with attempting to unravel apparent from real points of likeness, and thus clear- 

 ing the tangled ground to some extent for efforts which will be more effectively made when 

 the rapidly growing knowledge of the past has arrived at greater finality. It is by careful 

 studies such as those which are detailed in the volume before us that such a happy result will 

 be obtained." Daily Chronicle. 



AN INTRODUCTION 

 TO STRUCTURAL BOTANY 



By the Same Author. 



In Two Parts. Crown %vo. Cloth. Price 4s. 6d. net each. 



Part I. Flowering Plants. Ninth Edition. Illustrated with 1 18 Figures. 



Part II. Flowerless Plants. Seventh Edition. Illustrated with 124 Figures. 



" In noticing elementary books in these pages, we have lamented nothing more than the 

 want of a book which should do for structural botany what Prof. Oliver's Lessons has long 

 done for the study of the principal natural orders. It seems hard to realise that this grievance 

 is no more, and that we possess such a book in our own language, and a book that no honest 

 critic will fail to assess at a higher value than any known book in any language that has the 

 same scope and aim. Nothing could well be more plain and simple, or more severely accurate 

 or better judged from beginning to end." Journal of Botany (referring to Part I.). 



" We have nothing but praise for this neat little volume. With its companion (Part I. 

 Flowering Plants) it forms as good an introduction as one can imagine, in our present know- 

 ledge, to the study of the plant-world of to-day. . . . We only fear lest, amid a wealth of 

 illustration, the student may deem an examination of the actual specimens to be unnecessary." 

 The Guardian. 



VISUAL BOTANY 



BY AGNES NIGHTINGALE 



HIGHER FROEBEL CERTIFICATE 

 CERTIFICATE IN GEOGRAPHY, LONDON SCHOOL OF ECONOMICS 



Containing 117 Outline Illustrations for Colouring. 

 Small Crown Quarto. Price Is. 



Visual Botany is a little book that may be used, in different ways, by children whose ages 

 vary from six years to ten or twelve. 



The simple outline drawings from Nature may be coloured by the children themselves, 

 whose interest will thus be directed to certain aspects of nature, such as the germination of 

 seeds, the forms of buds and leaves, flowers and their parts, etc. 



The book is intended to be used as far as possible in connection with direct observations, 

 and is to be a means of stimulating the natural interest of children in these matters.
