Book excerpt: Correspondence from William Oakes to John Torrey, dated 1823-1841, discussing a wealth of plants, particularly New England plants, and Oakes' cherished dream of a flora of the region. "I confess I am somewhat surprised that a Botanist of your liberal notions should doubt the value of a well executed Flora of N.E.," he writes in 1828.

Book excerpt: Correspondence from John Carey to John Torrey, dated 1835-1854. An intimate correspondence spanning almost 20 years of friendship, Carey's letters to Torrey are candid and emotional-- sometimes buoyant and playful, other times somber. From New York City and Cambridge, Massachusetts he documents his hard work on botanical subjects ("...there is no such thing in nature as a strict lineal series of affinities"), particularly his contributions to Asa Gray's "Manual" in the area of Carex and Salix, and the traffic in specimens that flows between the botanists. He provides frequent news of their mutual acquaintences in the sciences, and nearly always sends warm greetings to Torrey's wife and daughters, and later his young son Herbert, who Carey calls "Herby." As a widow living alone, Carey eagerly anticipates his meetings and visits with Torrey and his family; there is much discussion about a planned oyster dinner in 1849. Carey pragmatically councils Torrey to pursue a well-paid professorship in Philadelphia, even though it would require "the necessary divorce from your early love (Flora)." Likewise he takes the reins of his brother Samuel's business when Sam is too ill to work. By fall of 1849 Carey is in dark spirits; he writes that he cannot bear to visit Torrey's happy home again because it makes his own loneliness too painful. 1849 also brings bouts of illness and the sale of the estate of their friend William Oakes, who drowned the previous year, and marks the beginning of a period of great personal sorrow for Carey-- the loss of his mother, two of his sons, two newborn grandchildren, and his herbarium-- mostly unmentioned in this collection, culmanating in Carey's return to his native England in 1852. He writes that he finds himself more at ease in London than he was in New York-- "I, personally am better fitted for a liegeman of the British Crown, than for one of Uncle Sam's Free and enlightened Citizens"-- and because he has started work in a brokerage house, "I must not be coquetting with dame Nature, if I would make a good man of business." Carey's last letter, dated Christmas Eve, 1854, brings a great deal of happy news: recently married, Carey and his new wife have just welcomed a baby daughter, and his surviving son and his family are staying with them in London; he is feeling healthier than ever and surprised and delighted at his good fortune. Also included in the collection is an undated note from Carey's son, John Carey, Jr., asking a question about his father's herbarium. Obsolete plant names mentioned include Carex nuttallii, Chenopodiaceae, and Cyclachaena.
