Description

'Cycads of Africa' by Douglas Goode is a richly illustrated reference work devoted primarily to the African genus *Encephalartos*, documenting its species, habitats, distribution and distinctive botanical features. Each species account includes detailed descriptions of its stems, leaves, cones and seeds, together with information on geographical distribution and conservation, supported by colour plates and distribution maps. The book focuses on cycads growing in the wild and reflects Goode's extensive fieldwork and study of these ancient plants. First published by Struik Winchester in 1989, the 256-page volume is an important illustrated reference for botanists, cycad enthusiasts and anyone interested in African plant life.
