Structural Botany, or Organography on the Basis of Morphology: To Which Is Added the Principles of Taxonomy and Phytography, and a Glossary (Classic Reprint)

Each edition has been in good part rewritten, the present one entirely so, and the compass of the work is now extended. More elementary works than this, such as the authors First Lessons in Botany (which contains all that is necessary to the practical study of systematic Phsenogamous Botany by means of Manuals and local Floras), are best adapted to the needs of the young beginner, and of those who do not intend to study Botany comprehensively and thoroughly. The present treatise is intended to serve as a text-book for the higher and completer instruction. To secure the requisite fulness of treatment of the whole range of subjects, it has been decided to divide the work into distinct volumes, each a treatise by itself, which may be independently used, while the whole will compose a comprehensive botanical course. This volume, on theS tructural and Morphological Botany of Phsenogamous Plants, properly comes first. It should thoroughly equip a botanist for the scientific prosecution of Systematic Botany, and furnish needful preparation to those who proceed to the study of Vegetable Physiology and A natomy, and to the wide and varied department of Cryptogamic Botany.
