Description :

Chasing Plants: Journeys with a Botanist through Rainforests, Swamps and Mountains (2022) by Chris Thorogood

Modern Plant Hunters: Adventures in the Pursuit of Extraordinary Plants (2019) by S. B. Primrose

Wilson’s China: A Century On (2010) by Mark Flanagan and Tony Kirkham

Plants from the Edge of the World: New Explorations from the Far East (2005) by Mark Flanagan and Tony Kirkham

These entertaining travelogues recount exciting adventures, and, in Thorogood’s case, what might be called the practice of extreme botany, in the pursuit of plants. All four writers delight in sharing the joy of the chase, often through remote and hostile landscapes, the excitement of the find, and showing plants in unexpected ways to their readers. The books are also lavishly illustrated with photographs, maps and original illustrations.
