The most valuable and exhaustive work on the grasses of the whole World, containing 600 plates of the full size of nature, most beautifully drawn by M. Maubert, of Paris, and engraved on copper under the guidance and inspection of M. Spach.

The Author printed the first three volumes for presentation to his friends; the work being interrupted by his death. It was completed from the materials left by him, by Sir Joseph Dalton Hooker, a fourth volume containing plates 412-600 being published.

Several copies of the last volume having passed into the hands of Mr. Quaritch, he would urge upon the possessors of the first three volumes the necessity of immediately obtaining the fourth, as the remaining two or three copies of that volume will soon be exhausted. No more can ever be produced, as the copper-plates were sold as old metal.
