Excerpt from The Indigenous Trees of the Hawaiian Islands
It has long been the writer's desire to give to the public a volume on the na tive trees of Hawaii, giving popular as well as technical descriptions of the trees peculiar to Hawaiian soil.
At first it was thought that plain popular descriptions would suffice, but it soon became evident that the technical part could not be dispensed with, and in order to make the book valuable for both the layman and the scientist, it was therefore included.
The rather lengthy introduction seemed an advisable feature and necessary, as it gives practically for the first time a more or less detailed description of all the floral regions and their plant associations found in this island group, not being restricted to trees alone but embracing the whole plant covering.
