Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Wild Flower Book: For Young People The little girl who tells this story goes from the city to live in the country with her grandmother. There, through the spring, summer, and the cool, crisp autumn, she roams through woods, meadows and swamps, and sees many things that pique her curiosity. Most often it is the wild flowers she wishes to know about; although she notices the birds, the trees, and even a bullfrog. She sees that the sky changes, and wonders why the dewdrops cling so long to blades of grass. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wild Flowers of the Year IN giving some account of the Wild Flowers of each month, the author has selected those which are most common, and most likely to be known by name to the general reader. To have enumerated each flower of each month, would have occupied so much space, as to render these few pages no more than a floral dictionary. The writer would regard the work as a little guide-book to the fields, and lanes, and woods; designed to direct the attention of the lover of country walks, to the lowly flowers, which he may be most likely to find in his path.

Download or read book Field Book of Western Wild Flowers Classic Reprint written by Margaret Armstrong and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 720 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Field Book of Western Wild Flowers In this little book a very large number of the commoner wild flowers growing in the United States, west of the Rocky Mountains, are pictured and described. It is the first attempt to supply a popular field book for the whole West. The field is vast, including within its limits all sorts of climate and soil, producing thousands of flowers, infinite in variety and wonderful in beauty, their environment often as different as that of Heine's Pine and Palm. In such strange homes as the Grand Canyon and the Petrified Forest of Arizona, or the deserts of Utah and southern California, we find the oddest desert plants, forced to curious expedients in order to sustain life amidst almost perpetual heat and drought, but often displaying blossoms of such brilliance and delicacy that they might well be envied by their more fortunate sisters, flourishing beside shady waterfalls, in a "happy valley" like Yosemite, or a splendid mountain garden, such as spreads in many-colored parterres of bloom around the feet of Mt. Rainier. On the wind-swept plains hundreds of flowers are to be found; many kinds of hardy plants brighten the salty margins of the sea cliffs, or bloom, at the edge of the snow on rocky mountain peaks, while;quantities of humble, everyday flowers border our country roadsides or tint the hills and meadows with lavish color. The field includes the States of Washington, Oregon, California, Idaho, Nevada, Utah and Arizona and to designate this whole field the term West is used in this book. The term Northwest designates Washington, Oregon, northern Idaho, and northern California, and the term Southwest covers southern California and Arizona. The flowers found only in the Rocky Mountains are not included, and it may be noted here that exceedingly few of the western flowers cross the Rockies and are found in the East.

Download or read book How to Know the Wild Flowers written by Mrs. William Starr Dana and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-02 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from How to Know the Wild Flowers: A Guide to the Names, Haunts, and Habits of Our, Common Wild Flowers IN offering the public an edition of How to Know the Wild Flowers, containing colored reproductions from the charming and faithful sketches in water color of Miss Elsie Louise Shaw, we feel sure that we are adding materially to the book's actual value as well as to its attractiveness. As color plates replace, in this edition, certain of the black and white illustrations, these, with a few others have been omitted and Miss Satterlee has added a number of new draw ings. Some of these black and white plates are of flowers not before figured in the book, while others present in fresh forms subjects already illustrated in it. Quite a large number of flowers not found in previous edi tions are now described, and advantage has been taken of the opportunity which the entire resetting of the book afforded for a careful revision of the text. This amplification has seemed ad visable in view of the fact that, during the five years which have elapsed since the publication of a thoroughly revised edition, the peculiar charm or importance of certain plants has so forced itself upon the author's consciousness, or else been brought to her notice so emphatically by others, as to persuade her that their inclusion would not transgress the restrictions originally laid down in the chapter How to Use the Book, restrictions which still seem indispensable if the volume is to be kept small enough to be a convenient companion in the woods and fields, and simple enough to appeal to the unbotanical flower lover. It is hoped that these additions will meet with the approval of the public, which has already attested so generously its eager ness to know the wild flowers.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Familiar Wild Flowers In our Summary we have availed ourselves largely of the writings of such masters of botanical science as Hooker, Lindley, and Bentham. All that can be said has been so accurately laid down by such men, that to strive after originality would be but to leave the true path, and, while escaping the charge of building on the foundations of others, to incur the greater responsibility of misleading those whom we profess to guide. The necessities of our limited space have made great condensation necessary we have therefore only taken the more salient points.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wild Flowers: A Book of Verse Many authors are of opinion that it is a mistake to publish these early works on which the 'prentice hand is so strongly marked; but I do not share their views, because the first step must be taken before the writer can know his own strength and weakness. In the following poems, written during the last two years, I expect the reader to see many faults but it is possible, too, he may, bearing in mind my inexperience, find in an otherwise darkened sky a few Sparks which show promise of better work later on. For I believe if a writer will ever do anything worth while, anything fit to live, a few harbingers of that to come, will be seen in his early efforts, if the critic will take the trouble to look for them. So I make my verses public, trusting they may be read by broad-minded men and women, who are ever ready to encourage even the faintest promise of ability.
