Flowers and Flower Lore (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Flowers and Flower Lore<br><br>While the Introduction and'' Notes will supply such other information as may be required for the intelligent study of Flower Lore. It is therefore quite unnecessary for me to write a long preface especially as I have taken pains to acknowledge my obligations to former writers by giving their names and the titles of their works whenever I have been indebted to them. I have every reason to hope that as great care has been taken in the preparation and revision of this work it may give pleasure and satisfaction to such as either from the love of Natural History or of Folk Lore shall make it their study.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
