description
No ISBN.The enjoyment of wild plants, after all, the fullest enjoyment does involve their history and their associations, which may be added to the pleasures of the hunt, the disciplined identification, the synthesising, analytic, and aesthetic pleasures, of contemplating the plant once found, and once recognised.In the entries which follow, plant by plant, something is given of the curious and ancient lore though unsystematically, and chiefly from English sources, since the book is about plants in England, or at least in the British Isles two extracts from the Introduction to the 1955 edition.
