"Useful Knowledge: Volume 2. Vegetables" by William Bingley details the natural world of plants during the 19th century. It's a journey into plant structures and how they’re sorted, also exploring how people can use them, and what benefits plants provide. From growing crops to medicine, and even cooking, the text explores many plant usages. Readers will learn about botany and plant characteristics, including their parts and systems of classification, like the one created by Linnæus that sorts plants into different groups based on how they reproduce. This introduction paves the way to explore specific plants, such as ginger and turmeric, revealing their stories, and examining how they were grown, eaten, and valued, both then and now. This book will teach you what plants are all about, and is great for anyone who enjoys nature, gardening, or science.
