I Have A New Book on the Way!

Last week, I happened upon a book title that I thought would be beneficial for my research on orchids through time.  I promptly purchased the book "A History of the Orchid" by Merle A. Reinikka.  The book was first published in 1972 by the University of Miami Press and covers a general history of the discovery of orchids and their classification, cultivation and more.

I also have my eyes on a couple of other books, that I will likely add to my collection once I work through "A History of the Orchid" once it arrives.  I hope to be able to gain more knowledge about the history of orchids, how they were used and how they traveled over time.
