Publisher Notes
Sir Joseph Dalton Hooker is remembered as an eminent Victorian botanist and one of Charles Darwin's closest collaborators. Many know of his plant collecting expedition in the Himalayas, but few are aware of his voyage to Antarctica and visits to Syria, Lebanon, Morocco, the Rockies and California. In addition to his botanical skills, he was also an amateur artist who obsessively sketched landscape, flora and occasionally people and their buildings.
