In the Name of Plants relates the stories of these people and the plants that were named after them.    Each chapter tells the story of the person for which each plant is named, many of whom were pioneering explorers, collectors and botanists - such as Alice Eastwood who has the yellow aster, Eastwoodia elegans, named after her.\r\n\r\n Eastwood explored previously uncharted territories in the 19th century and famously saved the California Academy of Science's priceless plant collection from the 1906 San Francisco earthquake.    Subjects range from Charles Darwin (Darwinia) and legendary French botanist Pierre Magnol (Magnolia), to US founding fathers George Washington (Washingtonia) and Benjamin Franklin (Franklinia).    Each entry is accompanied by superb artworks from the Library of the Natural History Museum, as well as photography of specimens and wild plants and the essential taxonomic details and geographic spread for each species.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen possible we will add details of the items we are selling to help buyers know what is included in the item for sale.
