A Synopsis Of The Queensland Flora Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from A Flower-Hunter in Queensland and New Zealand MY love for the flora of Australia, at once so unique and so fascinating, together with my desire to complete my collection of floral paintings, has carried me into other colonies, Queensland, and some of the remotest parts of the great Continent of Australia. The excite ment of seeking and the delight of finding rare or even unknown specimens1 abundantly compensated me for all difficulties, fatigue, and hardships. The pursuit has made me acquainted with many strange phases of colonial life; it has carried me into the depths of jungles, to distant islands, to wild mountain districts, and has brought me in contact with the aboriginal races, often in peculiar circumstances.
