Charles Scribner& Co This minbt he deecribad
as an attractive work on botany prepared, not
for the schools, but for general readers. The
author gives account of the more striking phe-
nomena of vegetation in every part OF the globe,
carefully observing scientific accuracy while
aiming to make the descriptions entertaining
The book can hardly fail to stimulate Young
people who read 10 undertake more sys-
tematic aud thorough study of botany. If is
one of the volumes of Scribner's 'Ilustrated
Library of Wonders" This and water APP
pear to belong to new series. At any rate,
they are differently and rather more brilliantly
bound than the Others. If more than these two
volumes have been issued in the new style we
have not seen them.
