Excerpt from The Banana, Its Cultivation, Distribution and Commercial Uses IT is not necessary for me to add 'much to the kind Foreword of my good friend Sir Daniel Morris. I' have to acknowledge my indebtedness in the study of the cultivation of the banana to my friends the banana planters of Jamaica, by whose skill and perseverance under difficulties and misfortunes the plantations of the Island have increased to such a marvellous extent. It may be somewhat invidious to give the names of any; but I cannot refrain from mentioning the names of two, to whom I am especially grateful - Mr. Robert Craig and the Hon. Henry Cork. My thanks are due for many courtesies, and are hereby tendered to the Librarians of the Royal Colonial Institute, the Imperial Institute, the Pharmaceutical Society, and the Botanical Department of the British Museum (natural History) also to the West India Committee and its secretary, Mr. Algernon Aspinall, for valuable aid in the preparation of this volume; to Mr. H. Hamel Smith, editor of Tropical Life to Mr. A. Roger Ackerley, of Messrs. Elders and Fyffes; to Dr. A. B. Rendle, keeper of the Botanical Department, British Museum (natural History), and to Mr. Ramsbottom, of the same department.
