In den WarenkorbPaperback. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. Small octavo, pp 64, (3), extremely clean internally, paperback, a very good copy from the library of the botanist Eric Groves, with his stamp on the front and rear covers. RARE. In this copy "Number 580" is printed on the verso of the title page - whether this is a limitation number… is not clear. [Apparently only two volumes of text were published, I have not established whether all the photographs were ever published or not. Certainly, Library holdings in the UK are limited to RBG Kew and the RHS, though in each case they seem to have only this volume, and none of the photographs. [Volume 2 was apparently published first, and a review of that in the Botanical Gazette, December 1929, states -" A very significant and comprehensive study of the vegetation of the world has just been initiated in a volume' of which Dr. Hugo IItis of Brunn is the editor. This book has for its main object the publishing of actual photographic prints, depicting the chief vegetative features of the entire world, country by country. The first volume to appear is volume II, which deals with the floral province of the European "Mittelgebirge." In the preface it is noted that this work is designed not only for botanists, but also for geologists, agriculturists, and friends of the plant world. The photographs are to be of uniform size, 9 X I 2 cm., and it is hoped that this work will prove a notable complement to herbaria and floras. The publishing of photographic prints rather than the reproductions from these prints is highly advantageous, because none of the details of the picture are lost. It is proposed to publish two or three numbers annually, either in centuries or half centuries. In each volume a certain floristic area will be dealt with, on the basis of Engler's classification. The work is published in three editions, German, French, and English".] In view of the fact that Karsten and Schenk's Vegetationsbilder was commenced in 1904, and was by 1929 well into publication, this project may have been questionable.
