Ann Arbor. Aug. [14th?] 1880
My dear Sir: –

I have just received
from your publishers in New York a
copy of your new work on Botany
and have partially examined it. Although
my examination of the book has been
neccessarily very imperfect I am convinced
that it comes nearer the ideal
text book of botany for our American
College than any other one that
has yet been offered. Sachs botany
is too much of an encyclopedia, [?]'s
too meager and my faulty in execution,
so that I have bee obliged to abandon
both of them as text books useful
and indispensable as the former may be for reference.

So far as I can judge your work
