Common Ground : Who's Who In New Zealand Botanical Names by Valerie Smith

"This compilation of 250 biographical sketches is based on New Zealand plant eponyms, both in current use, or which for taxonomic reasons have been relegated to synonyms and are no longer valid. The entries are set out in chronological order to maintain historical continuity and highlight the innumerable social connections that emerged. The stories they tell are all part of our botanical history and deserve to be remembered"--Author's note, page xiv.
