Fossil Plants: A Text-book for Students of Botany and Geology

Abstract

TO every science, works which bring together the data of the subject are essential, and to none more so than to palæobotany, which is based on the correlation of fragmentary remains from all countries and of all ages. Prof. Seward has served his science well in completing the almost Herculean task of writing a text-book covering the whole field of these plant remains. The first volume appeared many years ago, and this, the fourth, is the final one of the series.
