Two opinions of Volume I of the new Cyclopedia: 

 "No one who knows anything at all about the literature of garden- 

 ing needs to be told that the Cyclopedia is unique. It is the Bible 

 and Britannica of the garden-folk, amateur and professional alike. 

 And the remarkable thing is that, while it is fundamentally a work 

 of reference, it also contains limitless quantities of good reading of 

 the sort dear to the heart of the garden enthusiast." — The Nation. 



"It is no exaggeration to state that Bailey's new work is the best 

 cyclopedia obtainable for all who are connected, either remotely or 

 intimately, as amateurs or professionals, with horticultural pursuits. 

 It is the best for the student of botany who is investigating the subject 

 in a purely scientific way; best for the commercial grower who likes 

 to be well informed on matters in general and his own trade in par- 

 ticular, and best for the other sort of commercial grower, who does 

 not bother himself particularly about hunting for any information 

 except such as will give him immediate help in producing a better 

 crop." — The Florist's Review.
