The Woodlands Orchids
Frederick Boyle (1841-1914) was an English author, journalist, barrister, and orchid fancier. Born in Stoke-on-Trent, Boyle was a nephew of Joseph Meyer. He matriculated in 1859 as an undergraduate at Brasenose College, Oxford, and was called to the bar in 1866. In 1863, he went to Sarawak with his brother: this visit provided material for a book, and chapters in several other volumes of travel accounts from Asia, South Africa, and Central and South America. In 1866 he donated to the British Museum a large number of archeological artefacts he had collected while travelling in Nicaragua. He also published a number of novels and a variety of articles in journals. He described himself as a barrister and journalist in census records from 1871 to 1901; in 1911 he just did 'literary work'. He was a newspaper correspondent in the Russo-Turkish war, and was a regular contributor to the Daily Telegraph, the Pall Mall Gazette and periodicals such as All the Year Round, Blackwood's, Cornhill, The Illustrated London News, Temple Bar, The New Review, and The Nineteenth Century. He collaborated with Ashmore Russan on three titles serialised in the Boy's Own Paper and later published as books.In later life he wrote a number of books about orchids, which he kept as a hobby. He committed suicide in Bayswater Road, London, April, 1914, when 'much depressed'. (wikipedia.org)

About Orchids
A bright, funny, and curious stroll through Victorian orchid mania, About Orchids invites readers to listen in on a chatty natural history of plants, places, and peculiar people.Frederick Boyle's botanical essays mingle nature writing with humorous observations, turning a simple study of orchids into a window on Victorian London, travel, and garden culture. The form is intimate and lively, blending keen observation with light irony, and a deep respect for plants as witnesses to travel, science, and everyday wonder. This is not a dry catalogue but a conversation about beauty, curiosity, and the stubborn charm of the living world-an invitation to wander among scent, colour, and curiosity.A note on literary and historical significance: the book sits at the crossroads of botany and travel writing, a charming relic from garden literature classics that captures the wit and wonder of its era. It rewards casual readers with accessible delights and rewards collectors with texture, voice, and a sense of a vanished London and its botanical passions.Selling points:Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions.Restored for today's and future generations.More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure.
