""Grasses of British Guiana"" is a comprehensive guide to the grasses found in British Guiana, written by American botanist Albert Spear Hitchcock and first published in 1922. The book includes detailed descriptions of over 500 species of grasses, along with illustrations and distribution maps. Hitchcock's work is based on his own field observations and collections, as well as those of other botanists who worked in the region. The book is organized by family, with each species entry including information on habitat, morphology, and uses. Hitchcock's authoritative and detailed treatment of the topic has made this book a valuable resource for botanists and naturalists interested in the flora of South America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
