Excerpt from The Elements of Structural Botany With Special Reference to the Study of Canadian Plants, And, the Flora of Prince Edward Island The wood-cuts are from drawings from living specimens, except in two or three instances where assistance was derived from cuts of well known excellence in standard works on Botany. It need hardly be said that the engravings are not in any sense intended to take the place of the living plants. They are designed chiefly to assist in the examination of the latter; and whilst it is hoped that they may be of service to those who _may desire to read the book in the winter season, it is strongly urged upon teachers and students not to be satisfied with them as long as the plants themselves are available. The works most frequently consulted in the preparation of the text are those of Hooker, Gray, Bentley, and Oliver. Finally, the Author looks for indulgence at the hands of his fellow-teachers, and will be glad to receive suggestions tending to increase the usefulness of the work, and to extend a taste for what must ever be regarded as one of the most refining as well as one of the most practically useful of studies.
