Ann Arbor. Aug 14 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
necessarily very imperfect- I am con
vinced that it comes [illegible] the ideal
text book of botany for our Ameri
can College than any other one that
has not yet been offered. Sachs Botany
is two much of an encyclopedia [illegible]
too [illegible] and very faulty in execu
tion so that I have been obliged to aban
don both of them as text books useful
and indispensible as the former may be for reference.
So far as I can judge your work
