Abstract
THE Alpine wanderer will not be very grateful to Mr. Bennett and his publishers for this new “Flora of the Alps.” The net is spread widely; for, in addition to the whole Swiss flora, there are included here plants from adjacent mountain districts, and also the Pyrenees. The result is a rather cumbrous affair, and yet unsatisfying in detail.
The Flora of the Alps.
By Alfred W. Bennett 2 vols., with 120 coloured plates. Pp. xxii + 165; vi + 223. (London: J. C. Nimmo, 1896.)
