The volume is prepared not only for the amateur botan- 

 ist who seeks a more adequate description than the tcxt- 

 Ijooks afford, and not onh' for the lover of nature who 

 desires a personal acquaintance with the bushes that grow 

 in the fields; but also to serve those who are engaged in 

 the estal)lisliment and decoration of city parks, road\va)'s, 

 and boulevards; those who are seeking to beautify country 

 roadsides and railroad stations as well as those who, in 

 the decoration of their own home grounds, would gladlv 

 use our native shrubs were their habits and character better 

 understood. 



"Simple, ck-ar descriptions that a child can understand, arc 

 given of shrulis that find their home in the rej^don extcndin,i< 

 from the Atlantic to the Mississippi River, and from Canada tn 

 the boundaries of our Southern States." — Outlook. 



"There are over two hundred plates from photograj)hs, and 

 a number from drawinf^s. The ])hotoi,'raphs, all of shruljs in 

 flower or fruit, are very lieautiful, and so clear as to make identi- 

 fication pcrfecdy simple." — Dial. 



"An interesting feature of this Ijook is the syiariiiK but judicious 

 incorporation of quotations from lliose authors among us who 

 have best interpreted nature." -Churchman.
