Hortus Cantabrigiensis is a comprehensive catalogue of both native and exotic plants that were cultivated in the Cambridge Botanic Garden in 1826. The book was written by James Donn, a botanist who worked at the garden and was responsible for its development. The catalogue is arranged alphabetically by the Latin names of the plants and provides a detailed description of each species, including its habitat, growth habit, and uses. The book also includes a glossary of botanical terms and an index of common names. Hortus Cantabrigiensis is an important historical document that provides valuable insight into the state of botany and horticulture in the early 19th century. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of gardening and plant cultivation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
