Wild Plants and Dreams

ーThe Story of Tomitaro Makino

An illustrated biography of Japanese botanist Tomitaro Makino, who is known as the father of botany in Japan. Born in Kochi in 1862 just before Japan opened its borders to the world, he was fascinated with plants from childhood. His longing to know more about them was his starting point and inspired him to become a botanist. Although he never finished elementary school, he continued to study plants on his own for the rest of his life. At the age of seventy-eight, he completed the Makino Japan Plant Encyclopedia, and he continued to study until his death in 1957 at the age of ninety-four. The gently-hued illustrations vividly convey his life as well as his character and his deep love for nature. The end of the book presents well-researched documentation of his life and achievements along with a chronological table. (Shiozaki)
