Excerpt from The Student's Handbook of British Mosses The object of the present work is to provide a practical handbook of the mosses of our Islands in such a form as to be as far as possible accessible to the considerable, and I hope increasing number of students of these plants, many of whom find the larger and more expensive works on the subject beyond their means. Most bryologists have doubtless been asked to recommend the most suitable book for the student, and have probably experienced considerable difficulty in answering the question. Wilson's Bryologia Britannica - the prince of bryological books -is out of reach of many on account of its price, and is. after the lapse of forty years, far from covering the whole field of British mosses as they are known to us. Berkeley's Handbook is similarly out of date (about 465 species are there described out of some 600 as at present recognised); besides which some parts of that work, the plates especially, leave much to be desired. Hobkirk's Synopsis, though containing much valuable information in a small compass for one already well versed in bryology, is somewhat too compressed to be of great service to the less practised collector, nor has it the advantage of illustrations. Braithwaite's splendid and elaborate work, still in the course of publication, which has done so much to stimulate the study of these plants in our country and which will doubtless remain our standard work for many years to come, is of necessity published at a price which puts it out of the reach of many. There is therefore, unquestionably, a demand for a modern book which may serve to take the place of the older works in the hands of the student, and which, while of modest pretensions in comparison with such a work as the British Moss Flora, may be sufficiently detailed to serve the purpose of the beginner as well as of the more advanced bryologist. How far the present work fulfils these requirements must be left to others to decide. With the above object in view it has been necessary to compress the work into as small a space as is compatible with clearness, in order to keep the price as low as possible.

This book describes and illustrates in detail the 760 species of mosses currently known to occur in the British Isles and incorporates the most up-to-date information available on classification and nomenclature, together with recent synonyms. The species descriptions provide information on frequency, ecology, geographical relationships and distribution, including information on protected species and those species at risk. For many species there are footnotes to aid identification. In addition to the species descriptions there are descriptions of families and genera and also introductory information on conservation, collection, preservation and examination of material, together with advice on using the keys. An artificial key to genera provides the only workable comprehensive key published in the English language. This second edition incorporates the very considerable advances in our knowledge of mosses made in the last quarter of the twentieth century and will provide a unique resource for all concerned with these fascinating organisms.
