William Turner Fruits and Vegetables Under Glass

Annotation

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The encouragement I then received has, however, induced me at this later time, and after more extended experience, to now attempt to carry out an under taking which, even well into its beginning, seemed a Herculean task. But, strange to say, as I began to make progress the more deeply I became interested. It was to me a relaxation from other duties, and I have found the preparation of the subject matter very companionable. Progress has been slow, as the writing could be done at night only, after the more pressing duties of the day had received attention.
