1900. With many illustrations. Do the wild flowers speak to you-do they know you as a friend, or pass you by as an alien? Do you know their names-their language-their secrets? Every lover of the beauties of Nature, everyone who thrills to the out-of-doors, must know the wild flowers. Here in this book is that knowledge-the most fascinating of all the lore of Nature. How plants work out the problems of existence and survival-how they make their families healthy-how they start their children in life-how they found colonies in distant lands-how they use insects for their own purposes-these are some of the gorgeous mysteries which this book reveals-a book that gives every reader a broader sympathy with Nature and with man.
