This stunningly beautiful book is the first of its kind. It opens the herbarium to the public in its most flattering light, through the lens of Robyn Stacey’s camera, one of Australia’s most treasured photographers. The book tells stories about the nature of collecting, those who collected, what and when, and the scientific background to each of the specimens. In doing so, Robyn Stacey together with essayist, Ashley Hay, are able to throw open the closed doors of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Sydney herbaria, and the history of Australia’s flora. pp. 155 Splendid colour photographs. First Edition. #1020 (Ink price annotation on prelim, otherwise pristine.) ISBN 10: 0521842778 ISBN 13: 9780521842778 (Very large oversized book which may incur modest additional postage.)
