Book Description
Excerpt from British Ferns, Clubmosses Horsetails I look upon this little volume as a distinct acquisition to the Peeps at Nature Series, and I am confident that it will receive a kindly reception on the part of those who desire a well-illustrated, reliable, and at the same time inexpensive, book on ferns and their allies. The author has packed a great deal of information in a small space; he has dealt with a difiicult subject in a simple way. As a practical field botanist and close observer, he is well acquainted with the difficulties of identification, and the following chapters are the result of experience. The book will be valued by the general Nature student as well as the young beginner. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
