Illustrating the Botany and other branches of the Natural History of the stupendous Mountains which form the barrier between the British dominions in India and the territories of the Chinese; in which the Geographical Distribution of Plants, as connected with Climate, is considered, their Useful Properties detailed, and the principles which should guide their culture in new situations deduced; Being the result of investigations when in charge of a Scientific Institution of the Honourable Company, and assisted by the information which has accumulated from their long-continued patronage of Botanical Science in India. In a work on the Botany and Natural Productions in general of the Himalaya Mountains, any reference to the Climate and Natural History of other parts of India may by many be considered out of place, but if we are desirous of observing the changes in animal and vegetable forms dependent on climate, it is necessary, before we proceed to notice the European types found on the declivities of the Himalaya, to take a cursory view of those found at their bases which are characteristic of India.
