Excerpt from The Botanical Works of the Late George Engelmann: Collected for Henry Shaw, Esq.
This complete collection of the Botanical Publications of the late Dr. Engelmann has been made at the suggestion and by means of the generosity of his fellow-townsman Mr. Henry shaw, who thus rears a memorial of his old friend and associate not less appropriate than those in bronze and marble, commemorating distinguished men, with which he has adorned the beautiful park which he gives to the city of St. Louis. He thus greatly obliges and benefits the botanists of our own and future times for these publications were very widely scattered, and many of them were practically inaccessible to those who most needed to use them, and in their dispersed condition all were difficult to consult.
