About the book: After an epic Amazonian journey through Brazil and Peru, German botanist von Martius compiled an unsurpassed catalog of all known palm species. This exquisite encyclopedic treasure, a jewel of 19th-century botany, impresses with its meticulous classifications as well as its maps, colored landscape depictions, and cross-section diagrams, which illustrate the structure of these majestic trees.

Biography: H. Walter Lack is a professor at Freie Universität Berlin and was director of the Botanical Garden and Botanical Museum Berlin-Dahlem until August 2014. He is one of the outstanding experts in the history of botany and has primarily researched the cultural-historical consequences of the global transfer of useful and ornamental plants.
