Excerpt from Field Manual of Plant Ecology Having taught plant ecology at the University of Michigan Biological Station during the past thirty-two summers, the author has acceded to repeated requests for a manual based on this course. The course was initiated and developed in line with Agassiz's famous maxim: Study nature, not books, in addition to which special effort was made to use as little and as simple apparatus as possible. The aim was to work with plants at all times. Both high-school and college students can use the manual with suitable modification in any part of the country.
