Contact seller5-star sellerFirst Edition. First edition, 8vo, pp. xiii, [1], 154; illustrated throughout, including 21 color illustrations at the back on plates; fine copy in a fine dust jacket. Ernest Henry Wilson (1876-1930) "was a notable British plant collector and explorer who introduced a large range of about 2,000 Asian plant species to the West; s…ome sixty bear his name" (Wikipedia). He later became keeper of the Arnold Arboretum at Harvard University. He and his wife died in an automobile accident in 1930. "Here his great-nephew [Briggs] uses Wilson's original journals and photographs and previously unpublished family correspondence to delve behind the glamour of his adventures to the personal challenges and hardships he experienced. Complementing the story of his life is a brief account of his living legacy - the plants and trees for which he gave so much and which proved him to be one of the greatest plant hunters of all" (publisher's blurb).
