FLORA OF SOUTHEASTERN WASHINGTON AND ADJACENT IDAHO by CHARLES V. PIPER
AND R. KENT BEATTIE originally published in 1914. This region embraces
the richest wheat lands of the Northwest. The area contains the deep
black wheat soils covering most of the region, the extreme southern part
of thr area includes the Blue Mountains, and the series of low mountains
near the Washington-Idaho line, formed of metamorphic rocks, granite and
quartzite. The principal rivers are the Snake and Spokane. The total
flora of the region herein described consists of 20 Pteridophytes, 11
Gymnosperms, 270 Monocotyledons and 838 Dicotyledons. Some additions o
this list may be expected along the western borders of the area. Many of
the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and
before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are
republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern
editions, using the original text and artwork.
