To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Conspicuous amongst the forest growths are a magnificent tillandsia with very large fragrant flowers and silvery leaves ; the Cocoloha niacro'phylla, with enormous purple spikes over three feet long : several species of palms and tree-ferns ; a tall lobelia ; ebony, cedars, and the non-odorous West Indian sandal- wood. The indigenous flora also includes about thirty medicinal plants, and many others yielding resins and edible fruits, or else useful for dyeing, tanning, cabinet work, and buildin...g purposes. Corresponding with the character of the soil and the general distribution of moisture — much more abundant on the uplands and northern slopes than on the Caribbean sea-board — the island presents two strongly - marked and contrasting zones of vegetation. " One includes the whole of the mountains and north coast, described as a region of great humidity, high altitudes and stiff clay soils, where the general growth consists of deciduous trees of many species ; the other is the foothill country of the south coast, a region of dry calcareous soils, seasonal aridity, and low altitude, where the flora is largely of the type of low, scrubby, thorny, leguminous, and acacia-like trees.
