* A wonderful book of verse about flowers and their
popular names, the texts incorporated in colorful Art Nouveau plates
where the flowers have been depicted as 'squires and dames', fairies,
knights and beautiful queens. An exquisite children's book with matching
flyleaves and a striking binding decoration.
