Excerpt from Phytogeography of Nebraska: General Survey It goes without saying that the writings of the German phytogeographers which have appeared in recent years have been a chief source of inspiration. In particular the admir able Pflanzengeographie oon Deutschla'nd of Dr. Oscar Drude has made light the darker places in our path by the copious illustrations and comparisons which it furnishes. It will readily be perceived that the writings of Dr. Drude, the chief of which we have enumerated in the list of works consulted, have been made use of in the methods employed. We have departed from his methods with reluctance, and only in cases where the peculiar circumstances of our region appeared to make it imperative. We are indebted to several members of the Botanical Seminar and to a number of collectors in vari ous parts of the State for valuable assistance and informa tion. To Mr. F. W. Taylor in particular we are indebted for the means of making many important expeditions to distant parts of the State. Prof. E. H. Barbour has contributed the sketch of the geology of the State and much information dur ing the progress of our work. But above all we must acknowledge the invaluable counsel and assistance of Dr. Bessey, freely given at all times both in the preliminary work and in the preparation of this report. Without it, we should have been able to accomplish little. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
