Sinopsis

Excerpt from A Manual of Botany for the Northern States, Comprising Generic Descriptions of All Phenongamous and Cryptogamous Plants to the North of Virginia, Hitherto Described: With References to the Natural Orders of Linneus and Jussieu

Every one, who has passed through the first struggles of a student in practical botany, recollects the embarrass ments in which he was perpetually involved, by the multi tude of foreign genera contained in the European systems. Doctor Bigelow's Boston Flora proves the very great relief which is afforded to the student by a system of plants limit ed to his own particular district. But there is a middle way in this as in other things. The northern section of the Uni~ ted States is sufficiently contracted for this object; and the common cultivated exotics ought certainly to be included.
