Canadian Wild Flowers (1868) set the standard for sumptuous nineteenth-century Canadian books. An early example of large-format home-produced colour illustration, it was one of the first serious botanical works published in the country. Readers have long delighted in the graceful, yet scientifically precise text by Catharine Parr Traill as well as the beautiful, hand painted lithographs by her niece, Agnes FitzGibbon.
