Synopsis

Master the basics of grasses with an easy, beginner-friendly primer that makes botany approachable.

First Book of Grasses explains the structure of grasses in clear, practical terms and shows how to read botanical manuals.

Organized for steady learning, the book includes a structured introduction, detailed lessons, and diagrams that illuminate how grasses are classified and how they vary across species. It emphasizes observation and hands-on study, so you can recognize key features in the field or a herbarium.

• Structured lessons that cover spikelets, inflorescences, and other grass parts.


• Diagrams and illustrations to aid identification and understanding.


• Guidance on using botanical terminology and Latin names without becoming overwhelmed.


• Practical exercises and reviews to reinforce what you’ve learned.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Leopold is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works.

This means that we have checked every single page in every title, making it highly unlikely that any material imperfections – such as poor picture quality, blurred or missing text - remain. When our staff observed such imperfections in the original work, these have either been repaired, or the title has been excluded from the Leopold Classic Library catalogue.
