Excerpt from Flora Indica, or Descriptions of Indian Plants, Vol. 1 The sons of my deceased friend Dr. Roxburgh being anxious that the flora indica, on which he bestowed so many years of unremitting labour, should be presented Without any farther delay to the scientific world, requested me to superintend the progress of these Volumes through the press, a request with which I cheer fully complied. The first Volume formerly published being out of print, it became necessary to reprint it in order to complete the undertaking; that volume was enriched by the invaluable notes and additions of Dr. Wallich 5 but as Captains Roxburgh did not consider themselves at liberty to make use of those additions with out the permission of that eminent Botanist, they have been omitted in reprinting the Volume the present edition of the flora, to be completed in four Volumes, will therefore consist of the mss. Left with me by the late Dr. Roxburgh, without any addition. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
