not a few plates arc altogether new. ... A clear, bold distinctiye type enables the reader 
to take in at a glance the arrangement and divisions of every page. And Mrs. Lankester 
has added to the tochiiioal description by the editor an extremely interesting poptilar sketch, 
which follows in smaller type. The English, Erench, and German popular names are given, 
and, wherever that delicate and difficult step is at all practicable, their derivation also. 
Medical properties, superstitions, and fancies, and poetic tributes and ilhisions, follow. In 
short, there is notning more left to be desired.' — Guardian. 
‘Without question, this is the standard work on Botany, and indispensable to every 
botanist. . . , The plates are most accurate and beautiful, and the entire work cannot be 
too strongly recommended to all who are interested in Botany .’ — Illustrated News.
