Excerpt from The Natural History of Plants: Their Forms, Growth, Reproduction, and DistributionAlthough the authors of the Flora had no such purpose in view, their works furnished the starting-point for a real history of the vegetable world. A com parison of the Floras of neighbouring regions shows that certain plants inhabit a greater, others a lesser area, that the boundaries of the species confined to a distinct district coincide with territories inhabited by various races of mankind, that the boundaries of this and that species coincide and stand in relation to various climatic and other conditions.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
