| 467P. S. In the somewhat hasty examination of the book I have been
able to give I see nothing to criticize & much to commend. If
a more careful examination, & that shall be given it when it
is practicable, I find anything which I can intelligently
criticize or any suggestions which I may properly
make I shall be happy to communicate with you. Though
my comments must have no very great value
as compared with those of [?] whom you can readily
recall. I thank you for the book.
G. [?] P.
teaching Botany by lectures &
after various experiments I
have found that somewhat such
an order in the treatment of
the different topics as that
which you adapt is best &
proves most successful. No
American work with which I
am familiar is comparable to
yours for the purpose for which
it is designed & I am sure that
it will prove exceedingly valuable,
both as a text book for College, & as
a manual of the subject for the
general student. I congratulate
you upon the number & excellence
of the engravings & the general
appearance of the work. I am very
glad that so good a work is before
our students.
