This review is from: In the Land of the Blue Poppies: The Collected Plant-Hunting Writings of Frank Kingdon Ward (Modern Library Gardening) (Paperback)
We tend to take for granted the intrepid and brave explorers that brought us knowledge of far-off places and new plants and peoples. Reading Frank Kingdon Ward is like being part of his party as he nonchalantly climbs unknown, rugged mountains for the love of discovery. His endurance and bravery during a time when disease and primitive camping were common, is an inspiration to those of us coddled in today's comforts. I pick up his books whenever I begin to feel that modern life is "difficult"!
