Sobre este artículo
New York: Robert M. McBride & Company, 1915 First edition. (18),383 pp. Small octavo. Bound in original decorative brown cloth. Gilt title on front board and spine. 64 black and white illustrations. Coloured frontis. 16 other coloured illustrations. An attractive clean tight copy. In 1906, Henshaw published a book entitled "Mountain Wild Flowers of Canada..." It seems this title adds to the range and depth of her research. She was encouraged by John Macoun, the Dominion naturalist and Sir Thomas G. Shaughnessy of CPR fame. Nice copies are uncommon. 1915
