Description
""Studies of Plant Life in Canada: Wild Flowers, Flowering Shrubs, and Grasses"" is a comprehensive guide to the flora of Canada, written by Catherine Parr Traill and originally published in 1906. The book is divided into three sections, each focusing on a different type of plant: wild flowers, flowering shrubs, and grasses. In the first section, Traill describes and illustrates over 100 species of wild flowers found in Canada, including their characteristics, habitats, and uses. The second section covers over 50 species of flowering shrubs, providing similar information about their appearance and uses. The final section focuses on grasses, detailing over 30 species and their importance in Canada's agriculture and ecology.Throughout the book, Traill's writing is both informative and poetic, capturing the beauty and diversity of Canada's plant life. The illustrations, which were created by Traill's niece Agnes Fitzgibbon, are also a highlight of the book, providing detailed and accurate depictions of each plant.Overall, ""Studies of Plant Life in Canada"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the flora of Canada, from amateur botanists to professional scientists. It is also a fascinating glimpse into the natural world as it was understood and appreciated over a century ago.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
