Summary: Does the job -- but there are better books available
Comment: From the copyright date, this book was written in the fifties. The quality of the black and white photos is consistent with this guess, as is the rather pedantic style. There are also chapters on the structure of the nomenclature system, which is probably already well-known by most of the likely readers, and on how to collect plants, which may not be a good idea these days, at least for the rarer species.
For $6 more, I'd go for the similar book by James/Melinda Harris. More focussed; better illustrations; less pedantic style.
