An Enumeration of the Plants of the Galapagos Archipelago (1851)

Joseph Dalton Hooker, Sir

""An Enumeration of the Plants of the Galapagos Archipelago"" is a botanical book written by Joseph Dalton Hooker in 1851. It is a comprehensive guide to the flora of the Galapagos Islands, which are located off the coast of Ecuador. The book contains detailed descriptions of over 300 species of plants found on the islands, including their physical characteristics, habitat, and distribution. It also includes information on the geology and climate of the islands, as well as their history and exploration. Hooker's work was groundbreaking at the time, as it was one of the first scientific studies of the Galapagos flora, and it remains an important reference for botanists and naturalists today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
