Excerpt from Plant Breeding in ScandinaviaThe main object of this publication is to give a general survey of the work conducted at Svalof from the time of its inception and to indicate some of the facts and circumstances which have led to the adoption of principles of breeding now recognized at that place. For this exposition I claim neither originality nor completeness. The facts submitted have been taken from printed or private records to which reference is made in practically all cases.The one object has been, in the words of Huxley, to know what is true in order to do what is right.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
