About this work

Description

The Botany of the new U[nited] S[tates] P[harmacopoeia]. London Holograph draft (on rectos only), wanting f. 10 and c. 4 leaves at the end. The paper, adding a detailed list of examples, regards the botanical nomenclature of the U.S. Phamacopoeia (presumably 9 ed., 1916) as unnecessarily confusing, pedantic, and on occasion inaccurate.
