Description

Excerpt from Early European Researches the Flora of China Ancient documents showing the early attempts to illustrate the botanical features of the Middle Kingdom. I have thought that a critical review of these accounts in the light of modern science and a republication of some of them, which I found hidden in ancient periodicals, now little known and difficult of access, would prove of some interest and be even practically useful to collectors of Chinese plants and writers on the same subject.
