Links with the Past in the Plant World

Abstract

THE object of this neat little volume is best explained in the author's words. “I hope,” he says, “that I may succeed in attracting some of my readers who are already interested in living plants to the study of plants of former ages.” The book is likely to fulfil its purpose. Without attempting any serious discussion of evolutionary theories, the author brings home to the reader the deep interest of a number of problems in the history of plants and their distribution.
