This made it necessary to first publish a folio edition with a slightly different title which was indeed nature-printed. This was produced in a very small number. This octavo edition was then prepared for general distribution with the plates prepared by photo-lithography and depict the grasses one-half their natural size. Inscribed on the title page - "F.W. Andrews from Sir James Hector" - the latter was Director of the Colonial Museum and prepared the preface to the work. At the current time we also have a copy of the rare folio edition for sale.
