Tradescant, John, (the elder) (d.l638) 
Plantarum in horto lohannem [sic.] Tradescanti nasoen- 
tiian catalogue. Nomina soluramodo solis vulgata exhibens 
Anno 1634. (Magdalen Coll. Lib. Oxford) 
Reprinted in Gunther, R. T. Early British 
botanists (Oxford, 1922), p.334-345. Gunther 
hazards the guess that the book was never ac¬ 
tually published, and that the llagdalen copy 
may be only a proof of a work that was never 
put into circulation. He nevertheless cites 
a contemporary notice in the diary of Georg 
Christoph Stirn of Nuremberg (MS. Bodl, Add. 
B,67), who left Dieppe for England on July 2, 
1638, Stirn wrote that the names of plants in 
Tradescant’s garden were to be fovind in a spec¬ 
ial little book which Mr, Tradescant had had 
printed about them. But Gunther does not re¬ 
gard this as proof of actual publication. 
This reprint is enriched by numerous foot¬ 
notes in identification of the plants, large¬ 
ly from Parkinson and other contemporaries of 
the elder Tradescant,
