Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Gazetteer of the Bombay Presidency, 1886, Vol. 25: Botany
IN placing in the hands of the public the Useful Plants of the Bombay Presidency, the writer does not claim for it the merit of originality, freely admitting that it is almost entirely a compilation from the various works on Indian Botany that have preceded it. Although nearly every botanical work has been availed of for his purpose, the writer has in the following pages directed references in the main to Brandis' Forest Flora of the North West Provinces and Dalzell's and Gibson's Bombay Flora as being the two that are most handy and portable.
