Excerpt from Drugs and Medicines of North America, Vol. 1: A Publication Devoted to the Historical and Scientific Discussion of the Botany, Pharmacy, Chemistry and Therapeutics of the Medicinal Plants of North America; Their Constituents, Products and Sophistications; Ranunculaceæ

In this volume we have the record of all the American plants of the first natural order (ranunculaceae) that are known in medicine. We next take up the succeeding natural orders, and hope to continue until we have completed the subject.

To those who have assisted us by their subscriptions, we owe a heavy debt of thanks. The issue in periodical form has enabled us to enjoy every advantage both in the preparation and publication, for which we hope they will find a full equivalent in the resulting thoroughness of our work.

That an undertaking so new and so bold should have been generally approved by a profession so exacting, has seemed to us our best justification in making it. Yet not even the extraordinary preparation we had made for its execution would have sufficed, had not the profession made common cause with us, and aided in every way to give it completeness. And when we add that the plan of the work consists in its completeness, we need make no fur ther acknowledgments.

It can not be' denied that a plan so comprehensive has involved great expenses and difficulties. Nor can it well be doubted that this volume will be found of greater value year by year. Certainly, with the enthusiastic coopera tion the work at present enjoys, Of the most noted specialists in all the fields it covers, there is no occasion for anxiety regarding its future.
