Excerpt from A Manual of Botany for the Northern and Middle States: Part I, Containing Generic Descriptions of the Plants to the North of Virginia, With References to the Natural Orders of Linnaeus, and Jussieu; Part II, Containing Specific Descriptions of the Indigenous Plants, Which Are Well Defined and Established
I have now included all the species of indigenous plants, growing in the United States, to the north of Virginia; whose characters are clear and settled. I have not followed those botanists, however, who are so enthusiastically devoted to cutting up and new-naming. Where the division of a genus seemed to be founded in nature, I have adopted it provided I had specimens befbre me suflicient to enable me to judge. The reader is not to suppose, that I have seen all the plants described in this Manual. I have in my collection but about sixteen hundred of them. But I have been very cautious to adopt nothing without the highest authority.
