BOOK REVIEWS 
Illustrations of Flowering Plants! 
Dr. Alfred Gundersen, Curator of Plants at the Brooklyn 
Botanic Garden, assumed the task of having these illustrations 
reprinted, and has the following to say in the preface: “A ‘Guide 
to the Flowering Plants of Northeastern United States, except 
Grasses and Sedges,’ was published by the late Dr. George T. 
Stevens in 1910. Through the courtesy of his son, Dr. Charles 
Stevens of New York, 300 copies of the plates of this work, illus- 
trating about 1,500 species, are now reprinted. 
“We believe that the many excellent drawings of common 
plants justify their reprinting, chiefly with a view to outdoor use. 
We have in mind the making of brief notes by amateurs and be- 
ginning students in field courses. For this purpose forty blank 
pages, one for every five plates, have been inserted. 
“For a few critical groups such as Juncus, Potamogeton, 
Rubus, and others, the illustrations are not always accurate.” 
Dr. Gundersen states that the book may be obtained by apply- 
ing to him at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden.
