Excerpt from The Flora of Tennessee and a Philosophy of Botany: Respectfully Dedicated to the Citizens of Tennessee
Having been fifteen years in the saddle, traversing more than one-half of East Tennessee, throughout the Cumberland Mountains and all the valleys between Walden's Ridge and Smoky Mountain, I held in my mind a well-connected panorama. Of the natural vista at all seasons of the year.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into plant life and geology of Tennessee, from the 1840s when the author first encountered its natural splendor, to the late 1800s. The author, a botanist, arrived in Tennessee as a political refugee from Germany and found a wealth of flora to explore in his new home. His observations and collections form the basis of this work. Having travelled nearly half of East Tennessee and its valleys, the author's detailed descriptions of the diverse plant life found across different soil types and elevations is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the natural history of the region. From the highest mountain peaks to the lowest valleys and wetlands, the book captures the ecological tapestry of the state. The author's passion for the natural world shines through as he describes his experiences traversing the Cumberland Mountains and encountering rare and beautiful plant species. He notes how immigration has changed the aboriginal flora and discusses the importance of preserving the state's natural heritage. This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich plant life of Tennessee and will appeal to botanists, naturalists, and anyone interested in the history of the state's natural environment.
