Curiosity and Instruction: British and Irish Botanic Gardens and their Audiences, 1760-1800 (2018)

unapi

New botanic gardens were created that were organised for the benefit of new audiences extending beyond medical students to those interested in botanical science, agricultural improvements and seeing at first-hand new botanic introductions from around the globe.
