Excerpt from The Plant World, Vol. 3 The fall of 1892 was very dry, and a piece of woodland near Oakwood, Staten Island, N. Y., was burned over. Some of the swamps included in the area continued to burn for about two months in spite of several rains. To walk in one of the burnt swamps after the fire was out, was like tramping in the snow; the ashes were ankle deep and soft and fine. Many red maples two feet in diameter had fallen. There were also a few trees of other kinds. Their roots had been burned and a strong north wind, that came later, had blown them down.

Excerpt from Native and Exotic Plants, Trees and Shrubs, 1901, Vol. 18 I. We use every possible precaution to prevent mistakes in the nomenclature of plants, and never intentionally send out a plant under a wrong name but as we are receiving seeds and plants from different collectors all over the world, we cannot guarantee all plants true to name, as it is impossible under the circumstances. This is applicable particularly to plants of recent introduction from foreign countries. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Plant World, Vol. 1 As the ferns and conifers can be most advantageously studied elsewhere, we shall take up the higher division of the flowering plants, known to botanists as Angiosperms, the name signifying plants which produce their seeds in a closed cavity called the ovary. The Angio sperms are divided into two great sections, each of which may be easily recognized, and which are of such importance that their names and characteristics should be memorized.
