Book excerpt: Excerpt from Flora Calpensis: Contributions to the Botany and Topography of Gibraltar and Its Neighbourhood; With Plan, and Views of the Rock As Gibraltar has so often been described by various writers, the reader will perhaps be disappointed in not finding in my topographical observations any sufficient reason for another account of the far-famed rock; however, as the object of the present work is to give an outline of important and interesting facts, and to combine the purposes of general utility, as well as to satisfy the curiosity of the naturalist, it is to be hoped that so far the author has succeeded in his wishes. The elaborate works of Dr. Hennen, Montgomery 'martin, and Drinkwater, and several others of less note, may be consulted with great satisfaction by those who are curious to know more of this important and powerful fortress. I regret that Mr. Smith's geological account of the rock was not published until most of this work had been printed.
