The History of Botany

Abstract

AFTER fifteen years' interval, this admirable book has made its appearance in English. The translation does justice to the original, and to say this is very high praise, for the “History of Botany” is perhaps the most generally interesting, and the most finished in style, of all Prof. Sachs's works.

History of Botany

(1530-1860.) ByJulius von Sachs. Authorized Translation by H. E. F. Garnsey, M.A. Revised by Prof. I. Bayley Balfour, F.R.S. (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1890.)
