Subject: Botany book recommendations? 
 
>Do you have any recommendations for a beginning botany text  
book?  I'm looking for something I can order one of which  
discusses taxonomy, morphology, and physiology.  
 
 
Schmidling says: 
 
Botany texts are legion and for basics, any one will do. 
 
A very useful book to help struggle through the vocabulary  
and taxonomy is : 
                    "HOW TO IDENTIFY PLANTS" 
                     by: Harrington and Durrell 
 
It was published by: The Swallow Press Inc 
                     1139 S Wabash Ave 
                     Chicago 60605 
 
It is an excellent book with thousands of drawings  
explaining the complicated vocabulary of botany.
