Trees and Flowers of Yellowstone National Park (Classic Reprint) by Frank E. A. Thone Pdf

Excerpt from Trees and Flowers of Yellowstone National Park In this book, technical terms and treatment have been avoided whenever possible. For the most part the genus is the smallest group considered, as the average visitor is not interested in fine distinctions among species; and even if he were he would get small comfort from the professional botanists, who are too often in hopeless disagreement among them selves. For those who are interested in more exact determinations, there is no substitute for the complete floras of Coulter ah-d Nelson and of Rydberg, covering the whole Rocky Mountain region. Mention must also be made of Rocky Mountain Flowers, by Clements and Clements, a work combining a high degree of scientific accuracy with adaptability for popular use, and illustrated with finely colored plates. N o artificial key has been included in this work, for it has been the writer's experience that these are rarely, if ever, used by the layman. The usual prae tice is to turn the leaves of the book until a picture is found that corresponds with the flower under ex amination. The plants are grouped according to their growth form, as trees, shrubs ah-d herbs, but beyond that they are left in approximately the same order in which their family affinities place them. This sets flowers of similar form and evolutionary history together, and has at least the virtue of being a natural arrange ment.
