Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from My Hundred Swiss Flowers: With a Short Account of Swiss Ferns
As an example of what may be done without any search, but merely by gathering what comes in the way, we will give the remembrance of a walk up Pilatus one early day in July, and will say, in passing, that this grand old moun tain, with its cap of cloud, possesses a fine ?ora in addition to its other attractions. We simply put down from memory a few ?owers which were gathered on that occasion; had all those found within about ten yards from the road been added, the number could easily have been doubled or trebled.
