The Plant Hunter's Atlas is a volume telling some of the most extraordinary tales of horticultural discovery and exploring the characters behind the stories. Taking in the world's inhabited continents and spanning the centuries, the stories range from tales of derring-do in the age of discovery to modern-day botanists working at the cutting-edge of science. The text explores how plant hunters have been inspired by everything from scientific curiosity to economic greed, and their own ingrained sense of adventure.

Among the plant hunters included are: Sir Joseph Banks, Charles Darwin, David Douglas, Reginald Farrer, George Forrest, Robert Fortune, Tadeáš Haenke, Tom Hart Dyke, Alexander von Humboldt, the Lobb brothers, John Sibthorp and Ernest Henry Wilson.

I loved the stories, but the delivery spoils it. It would be well worth it to get an actor to narrate. I would also have liked to hear the real voices of the modern-day plant hunters quoted.

Great stories

I’m enjoying this book but I have to say I keep listening for a bit then putting it aside for a few weeks/months as I’m finding the narration difficult. I feel mean saying it but I would definitely prefer it to be narrated by someone else. Just finding it hard to follow and unable to binge it which is what I love doing with audiobooks!
The information is great and it is very well written.

Great book but struggling with narration

Well, this is definitely about Kew and so is for Anglophiles. But, the information is there.
