Abstract
A BOOK has lately come into my hands a few words about which may possibly interest some of the readers of NATURE. Its title is “Histoire Naturelle des Fraisiers”; the author was A. N. Duchesne, and it was published at Paris in 1766. It must be, I suspect, an uncommon book, for there is no copy in the library of the Royal Gardens at Kew. And this library, comprising as it does the contributions of many collectors who allowed little to escape them, is remarkably complete; Mr. Daydon Jackson has in fact found in it more than a thousand publications the titles of which are not to be met with in the last edition of Pritzel's well-known “Thesaurus.”
