Excerpt from Grand Rapids Flora: A Catalogue of the Flowering Plants and Ferns; Growing Without Cultivation in the Vicinity of Grand Rapids, Michigan I have aimed to include in this publication all of the flowering plants and higher cryptograms, so far as observed, which grow without cultivation within sixteen and one fourth townships, an area of 585 square miles. This territory includes the City of Grand Rapids as a center with its two tiers of surrounding townships. Students of Botany in the Grand Rapids High School, former teachers of the subject here, and several local collectors, have supplemented my own personal efforts in furnishing the information which it contains. This catalogue, like all pioneer work in this line, must necessarily prove incomplete. Even in so small a district as this, there will be some unobserved places worthy of careful investigation. It is hoped, however, that it will contribute something to the better knowledge of our flora. The work has been done with care as to local distribution, abundance, and constancy of the species mentioned. Attention has also been given to any habits, or morphological variations, in those plants which have their natural geographical limits in the State, and which come within, or near, the range of this district. Care has been taken that no plant should appear in the catalogue without being represented by a specimen in the herbarium referred to, and with sufficient data to warrant its acceptance. All notes or statements quoted from other sources have been carefully verified. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
