‘“‘All persons interested in the history of botany and of the botanists of these 
tid , but more especially those actively engaged in botanical work involving 
histori research, will welcome a reprint of the ‘ ages Index,’ which ran 
rough four volumes of this Journal, Lact te in 1888 . And this little book 
is, after all, the foundation, and a good substantial one, ies of the history of 
British and Irish botanists, snk ue may some day develop into as complete and 
exhaustive a work as Colmeiro’s admirable La Botdnica y los Boténicos de la 
Peninsula Hispano-Lusitana. No other nation, I believe, possesses such a work as 
the latter, and no second nation, so far as I am aware, just such a work as the 
rmer.’’—W. Botting Hemsley in Journ. Bot., Sept. 1893.

up to date.”—dAtheneum, Dee. 30, 1893.

work indispensable.’’—Gardeners’ Chronicle, Sept. 9, 1893.
