Abstract
THIS, as its title indicates, is intended to form a handbook to the economic plant-products of Western Africa. Although the author is Governor of a British colony in this region, his remarks are by no means confined to British possessions, but are intended to include all that is at present known of economic interest connected with the plants of Western Tropical Africa.
Sketch of the Forestry of West Africa, with Particular Reference to its Principal Commercial Products.
By Alfred Moloney, of the Government of the Colony of Lagos. (London: Sampson Low, Marston, Searle, and Rivington, 1887.)
