Excerpt from Tropical Agriculture: A Treatise on the Culture, Preparation, Commerce, and Consumption of the Principal Products of the Vegetable Kingdom The edition being limited, and chiefly restricted to subscribers, the book has long been scarce, and is greatly in request; no other writer having since taken up this general field of description, I have been repeatedly asked to reprint the work; but my various literary engagements and active duties in charge of colonial products at the different international exhibitions have hitherto prevented me from devoting the necessary time and research to the task.

Excerpt from A Text-Book of Tropical Agriculture "If you wish success, make perseverance your bosom friend, experience your wise counsellor, caution your elder brother, and hope your guardian genius." - Addison. "It is both the duty and interest of every Owner and Cultivator of the Soil to study the best means of rendering that soil subservient to his own and the general wants of the community; and he who introduces, beneficially, a new and useful Seed Plants or Shrub into his district, is a blessing and an honour to his country." - Sir J.Sinclair.

Excerpt from Agriculture in the Tropics: An Elementary Treatise During the last twenty-five years a great deal of attention has been drawn to agriculture in the tropics, as to other subjects connected with the same regions of the world. Not only do people travel more in the tropical regions, not only has there been great rivalry between the nations of the North in acquiring and developing colonies there, but also such agricultural phenomena as the collapse of coffee planting and the rise of cinchona, cacao, and tea in Ceylon, the depression of sugar in the West Indies and the formation of an Imperial Department of Agriculture to deal with the situation, the recent rise of rubber planting in Ceylon, the Federated Malay States, Mexico, and other tropical countries, and the depression in cotton, followed by the formation of the British Cotton Growing Association, and the extension of the cultivation of this crop in the West Indies and the British African colonies, have all in themselves excited very general interest. This has shown itself, among other things, in the formation of departments of agriculture in most of the colonies of the tropics. The danger is now that we may try to go too rapidly, without a proper thinking out of the subject. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
