Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Eucalyptographia: A Descriptive Atlas of the Eucalypts of Australia and the Adjoining Islands
In submitting now the first portion of this monography to the public, the author ventures to express a h0pe, that the importance of the Eucalypts, whether viewed in their often unparalleled celerity of growth among hardwood-trees, or estimated in their manifold applicabilities to the purposes of industrial life, or contemplated as representing among them in all-overtowering height the loftiest trees in Her Majesty's dominions, will be still more deservedly recognized by the perusal of these unpre tensive pages both here and elsewhere.
