Title: A C.S. Rafinesque Anthology
First published: June 15, 2005
Description: "Among American naturalists, C.S. Rafinesque (1783-1840) is second only to Audubon in the popular interest. This interest is due in part to his life and personality, but he is also remembered for devising Latin scientific names for more plants than any other naturalist who ever lived. This passion for nomenclature has kept his name among naturalists. "--Provided by publisher.
