Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Practical Botany for Elementary Students: Introductory to the Systematic Study of Flowering Plants
The object of this little work is to supply a Practical Handbook for the use of Students of Elementary Botany who desire to obtain, by the examination of actual specimens, some real know ledge of the general structure of Flowering Plants, so far as may be worked out by the aid of a sharp penknife, a few dissecting needles, and an ordinary lens.
The plants selected are well known and easily procured types of the fifteen Natural Orders included in the Syllabus of the First Stage of Elementary Botany, issued by the Science and Art Department, as it is believed no better selection of Natural Orders, intended as introductory to the study of Classification, could possibly be made.
