[London 1989], Murray. Blue cloth, 218p., dj., as new copy, index, bibliography, bibliography of F. Kingdon-Ward,16 x 24 cm., chronology of his expeditions, 26 b.w. photos. FIRST AND ONLY EDITION Frank Kingdon-Ward's lifetime of plant collecting enriched gardens throughout the world with some of their greatest & most enduring treasures. He was the last of a long line of plant hunters that began in the 18th century with the great Sir Joseph Banks, architect of the Botanic Gardens at Kew. Like his forebears, Kingdon-Ward combined botany with exploration, indeed, magnetized by the wild & uncharted terrain of North Burma, China & Tibet, he considered himself first and foremost an explorer until enthusiasm for plant collecting tipped the balance. * It is Kindon-Ward that we have to thank for so many of the marvelous Himalayan plants we now grow in our own gardens: spectacular rhododendrons of all colours, fine varieties of primula, the beautiful Tibetan blue poppy & some of the most ravishing lilies known to man. All discovered on far-flung mountainsides or precipitous gorges in country where, more often than not, no European had trod before. * An intrepid traveler, undaunted by discomfort or hardship, driven on by his desire to find plants of ever greater loveliness, he was also a prolific & talented writer. A most fascinating biographical study of the celebrated plant-hunter. *.
