Synopsis
First Steps In Economic Botany, An Abridgement Of 'Popular Economic Botany' by Thomas Croxen Archer. This compact manual adapts Archer’s Popular Economic Botany for use as a school-book, offering a structured survey of the vegetable materials that underlie food, industry, and daily life. The Preface explains that the work aims to make the origins and uses of common imported products accessible to students, with support from the Department of Science and Art and a program of visual aids. The book divides its subject into five sections: Substances Used for Food; Products Employed in Manufactures; Miscellaneous Products Used in the Arts and Manufacturing Processes; Materia Medica; and Constructive Materials. It details cereals, fruits, nuts, starches, spices, gums, oils, dyes, and textiles, with numerous examples such as wheat, rice, maize, sugar, tea, coffee, cotton, flax, hemp, jute, arrowroot, sago, and cacao. The text blends practical information, historical notes, and observations on global trade, reflecting mid-19th century science and education. Originally published in 1854.
