Excerpt from The Flower-Finder N 0 special study or training is required to follow these charts. It will only be necessary, for one not familiar with botanical terms, to master the directions, particularly the directions regarding the form and arrangement Of the leaves and flowers. So much botanical knowledge it will harm no one to acquire. Peculiarities of the plants, flowers, and fruits, obvious to the non-botanist, but fairly constant, have been selected, while botanical terms have been as far as possible avoided and replaced by words in common use. I should be sorry if this plan suggests that it is not worth while to learn the scientific Classification of the flowers, or that it is a matter of no interest to study their habits and their method of fertilization. But the main object of this book is to facilitate the recognition of the flowers and fruits; it is little likely that anyone interested enough to go so far will go no farther. If a flower has eluded the searcher I have generally found it due to the fact that the charts have been tried without study ing the explanatory chapter. The commonest stumbling-block has been the failure to learn the meaning of the terms shrub and herb, composite flower, and compound leaf. For the families and the Latin names Gray's Manual (seventh Edition) has been followed. For other Latin names Britton and Brown should be consulted. These authorities have been my main reliance for facts, though many other books have been consulted. In names likely to be mispronounced, the grave accent is inserted for the long sound, the acute for the short, as in the Manual. In case the derivation of the generic name is not given it may generally be assumed it is either unknown or is an original plant name.

Excerpt from Wild Flower Families: The Haunts, Characters, and Family Relationships of the Herbaceous Wild Flowers With Suggestions for Their Identification In this little book I have attempted to bring into easily available form a discussion of a large proportion of the more widely distributed herbaceous wild flowers, which should so combine suggestions for observations in the schoolroom and out of doors that it would make the study of the wild flowers of real interest both to teacher and pupils. It is assumed throughout that the pupils shall have an opportunity for a constructive reproduction of their images of the flowers through drawings, written exercises and pressed specimens or photographic prints, which are to be bound into booklets that shall become the personal property of the pupils. While the arrangement of the various species is that of a grouping into families these families are placed in the sequence of the blossoming of the more important members, so that the season of flowering may be followed in a general way.

Excerpt from The Flower Book Marching, marching, marching, over the Earth go the little Foot-soldiers. Now the Sun is rising, and the blades flash in sheets of silver, saluting at attention. From one to the other passes the message of life. Each murmurs to his brother; each lifts his head, fresh with joy; each waits, contented, for his ultimate service.

Excerpt from A Guide to the Wild Flowers It is for this reason that a classification according to the soil in which they grow is feasible. It is a tangible point of which to take hold. And although there are some fickle-minded plants that appear to flourish in different kinds of soil, they may be regarded rather as those straying away from family tradition, than as trustworthy examples. As a rule they are partial to particular kinds of soil and do not thrive nearly so well in other than that allotted to them by Dame Nature. The marsh marigold, with which most of us are familiar when it reaches the sunny, warmer south retires to the wet, cool woods in search of a soil similar to that of its home marshes. The harebell, that is with us a shy plant, hiding itself in shady places and rooting in moist soil, in England ventures out into the meadows and highways. It has there not our midsummer heat with which to contend and finds the soil of the fields not unlike that of our Shaded banks.

Excerpt from The Wild Flower Book: For Young People The little girl who tells this story goes from the city to live in the country with her grandmother. There, through the spring, summer, and the cool, crisp autumn, she roams through woods, meadows and swamps, and sees many things that pique her curiosity. Most often it is the wild flowers she wishes to know about; although she notices the birds, the trees, and even a bullfrog. She sees that the sky changes, and wonders why the dewdrops cling so long to blades of grass. In her own way this little girl writes about these things, using neither botanical terms nor difficult words. The flowers she finds are the ones common throughout the northeastern States of her country, where hundreds of them bloom every year near large cities. Now, however, the rarer flowers are moving to places far away from men's dwellings, because they have been picked so much by those who think little of their preservation. She learns that wild flowers have tender feelings, and that they resent cruel treatment, even though they cannot complain in the language of children.

Excerpt from Harper's Guide to Wild Flowers This book explains the easiest way of telling flowers and plants. These ways are based upon the new Classification. This Classification is the one presented in the seventh edi tion Of Gray's Manual of Botany, published in 1908. It em bodies the decisions Of the Vienna Congress of 1905. The Congress came to an agreement respecting the botanical names and Classifications of American flowers, which we hope will not need to be revised. Some Old names, dear to us, have Come back. Greater simplicity as well as perma nency has been aimed for. The first way Of telling flowers is by color. It is the simplest means Of identification, and to this the most space is given. Secondly, flowers may be identified by their dwelling places or habitats. Thirdly, flowers are shown by seasons, the time and order Of their blossoms. This book is a Guide to the flowering plants Of the Atlantic seaboard, New England, the Middle States, and, to a limited extent, Of the Southern States. It is interest ing to note the wide latitudinal range Of some plants along the entire Atlantic coast. As the climate grows warmer, plants ascend the mountains, and New Eng land vegetation reappears two thousand feet high in Vir ginia. Plants which are local, and but seldom found, the size Of this book excludes. Plant immigrants, unless well established, are not enumerated. Taking New York as the center of a wide circle, any per son possessing no knowledge Oi botany (except such as may be acquired from the Explanation Of Technical Terms) may identify any flower and learn something Of its story. There is every reason to believe that there is need Of a book complete in its means of identification. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Rambles in Search of Wild Flowers, and How to Distinguish Them As her mother closed the door, Fanny's eye still dwelt on the outward view. She was not gazing on the beach with its small complement of pedestrians, nor upon the waters of the Severn, with which the fresh tide of the channel was now striving, nor yet upon the grey line of the Welsh coast and the scarcely less faint outline of the flat and steep Holmes; but her eye was fixed with a yearning look Of inquiry upon the distant thread where sky and water meet, and that look seemed to ask, What is there in the future for me? Is there rest? For my spirit is weary of all that has been. She turned slowly as her mother's footsteps receded, and addressed Esther.
