Abstract
LOVERS of Norway, plant geographers, ecologists and systematists in many countries have cause for gratitude that Prof. Nordhagen's monumental study of Norwegian mountain vegetation in general and of Sikilsdal in particular was successfully published in 1943 in spite of enemy occupation of the country. The book is the culmination of twenty years indefatigable pioneer work, and the only cause for regret is that its weight and quarto size preclude its being carried in the pocket by a visitor. In every botanical library it should, however, find a place.
