"Fossil Plants, Vol. 2: A Text-book for Students of Botany and Geology" by A. C. Seward is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This volume serves as an advanced text for students delving deeper into the study of fossil plants, particularly focusing on the structural and anatomical features of various plant groups that have existed throughout geological history. The opening of this text sets the stage for an in-depth exploration of fossil botanicals, with an acknowledgment of the considerable advancements in paleobotany that necessitated a revised understanding of several plant families, particularly ferns and extinct gymnosperms. Seward discusses the complexity of fossil data, including challenges in categorizing certain genera based on incomplete specimens, and outlines the original scope of the book, which necessitated a third volume due to its ambitious nature. This introductory portion emphasizes the importance of collaboration and the evolving nature of botanical research, as Seward hints at the intricacies involved in studying plant evolution through the fossil record.
