Description
Excerpt from The Elements of Botany for Beginners and for Schools
This volume takes the place of the author''s lessons IN botany and vegetable physiology, published over a quarter of a cen tury ago. It is constructed on the same lines, and is a kind of new and much revised edition of that successful work. While in some respects more extended, it is also more concise and terse than its predecessor. This should the better fit it for its purpose now that competent teachers are common. They may in many cases develop paragraphs into lectures, and fully illustrate points which are barely, but it is hoped clearly, stated. Indeed, even for those without a teacher, it may be that a condensed is better than a diffuse exposition.
