Dustwrapper slightly edgeworn; a little foxing. Very good condition. "CAPE FLORAL KINGDOM remains the only work of its kind presenting the fascinating story of the famous Cape flora as a whole. . The title derives from Rudolf Marloth's description of the narrow coastal belt from Port Nolloth to Port Elizabeth with Cape Town at mid-point. This area bordered by sea and mountain contains nine-tenths of South Africa's flowering plants and enjoys the claim of being the richest floriferous area in the world. Lighton chooses Table Mountain as the natural throne of the Kingdom and traces the discovery and descriptions of the flowers from the time the first plant collectors from Europe climbed the heights above Table Bay and then went further afield.".
