Harvey Gardiner says of Holton's book in his introduction to the reprint: "New Granada is the fullest and best-written assessment of that country at mid-century by a foreign observer. In 1852 the bespectacled bachelor botanist carrying two bales of paper for drying plants but no passport for himself first glimpsed a tropical landscape.For twenty unhurried months on itineraries of his own choosing he traveled widely visiting many areas more than once. When he bade farewell to New Granada in mid-May 1854 his luggage contained approximately 1800 botanical specimens a diary crowded with details and vast quantities of data concerning political subdivisions mail routes altitude climate weights and measures etc." He style is full of wry Yankee humor as well which make it a good read. The appendices are detailed and in themselves constitute a gazetteer of Colombia. Much was left out of the reprint inc. the maps appendices illustrations etc. Binding is contemporary 3/4 calf over marble boards; very clean text and maps. Very good copy. <br/><br/> Harper & Bros. hardcover books
