The \u003cem\u003eFlora \u003c\/em\u003erepresented the life work of botanist Jacob Peter Anderson who's aim was to produce a flora encompassing all known vascular plants in the state. Included are keys and descriptions for each family, genus and species; small line-drawings are provided for diagnostic features of many of the plants included in the book. Long out-of-print and now somewhat dated in terms of what is now known of the Alaskan flora and species taxonomy, \u003cem\u003eAnderson's Flora \u003c\/em\u003eremains, however, a valuable resource for the study of Alaska's diverse plant life. Also, there is no field guide-sized reference useful for researchers, students, and others studying plants in the field. As the original book did not provide keys and descriptions to the important willow (\u003cem\u003eSalix\u003c\/em\u003e) genus, an addendum is provided with summer and winter keys to the willow species known from the Alaska interior. Author J. P. Anderson (1874-1953) resided in Alaska from 1913-1940, before leaving for a position at Iowa State University where he continued his work of preparing his \u003cem\u003eFlora, \u003c\/em\u003eincluding a number of return visits to Alaska for additional field research.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jacob Peter Anderson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1951682106\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781951682101\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Orchard Innovations\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/20\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 560\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.41lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 1.14d","brand":"Jacob Peter Anderson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43995838611711,"sku":"9781951682101","price":25.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_acca3b6d-41e5-46cb-bea9-acf9a7ec4c72.jpg?v=1683338151","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/andersons-flora-of-alaska-and-jacob-peter-anderson-9781951682101","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
