Illustrated with 580 full-color and b&w photos. From dust jacket: Here, produced on a grand scale with 200 superb color plates, is the first comprehensive treatise to cover the subject of flowering vines in its entirety. The author, Dr. Edwin A. Menniger, is one of America's leading naturalists and a writer of austhentic individuality as well. Hence, this publication is of signal importance to horticulture specialist, general reader, and nature-lover. Encyclopedic, yet eminently readable, it warrants an honored place on any library shelf...For the first time in any language, the climbing plants of the entire world (those of temperate as well as tropcial climes are included, greatly increasing the work's applicability and interest) are brought together in a single volume...A wealth of technical material is combined with utterly fascinating data that even the non-horticulturally inclined layman can't help but enjoy. Incredible eccentricities are revealed...For this definitive encyclopedia on his subject, Dr. Menninger has enlisted the collaboration of some fifty world-famous scholars, including those at Kew, in England; at Boston's Arnold Arboretum, and at the Smithsonian Institution. A complete index and bibliography are included.
