F. Gordon Foster (2) (1904–1996)

A comprehensive plant book. It describes the structure and life-cycle of ferns, how they grow and how to care for them indoors or out. The bulk of the book is actually about identifying ferns. There's a section on ferns that grow well in landscaping, with brief instructions on their horticulture. Another section is all about "tender" ferns that do well as houseplants, and the last part is about rare and wild ferns, that don't survive outside their natural climate and so are presented here to enable the reader to identify them in the wild.
