Présentation de l'éditeur

This First Book of Botany is intended to be an Introduction to theS tudy of the Anatomy and Physiology of Plants, suitable for beginners. In the present day the study of theN atural History Sciences is beginning to constitute an important part of the education of the pupils who attend our schools, and Botany is the department which seems to be best suited for the youthful mind. It is a science having reference to the trees, shrubs, and herbs which are objects of daily observation. It can be prosecuted at all times, and adds interest to every walk in the country. It quickens the powers of observation, and promotes the formation of orderly habits. It teaches the pupil to mark the differences and resemblances of the objects around him, and leads to accuracy of description and definition. It is the simplest of theN atural History Sciences, and the materials for its prosecution are within reach of all. The poorest child can be taught to see beauty in the buttercup, the violet, and the daisy, which beset his path, and may be led to view these common things with something more than an idle gaze. fT he wonderful arrangements and adaptations seen in the meanest weed give to the mind exalted ideas of the wisdom and power of the Creator, and exhibit the care which He bestows on the lowliest flower.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
