“The appearance of Dr Moss’s work has been anticipated by British
botanists with the greatest interest; not only to them does it appeal,
for its completeness and attention to detail entitle it to rank among
works of Continental importance. The Cambridge University Press has been
fortunate in securing the services of Dr Moss, than whom no one more
competent for the task could be found. By a combination as admirable as
it is rare, Dr Moss is at once an acute field botanist, a diligent
investigator of herbaria, and a student of botanical literature.... Mr
Hunnybun’s drawings are all made from living plants, so that the work
may be regarded as representing more fully than has been hitherto done
our knowledge of British Botany at the present day.”--_Journal of
Botany._
