2013New English Original bdg. In publisher's special slip-case. 4to. (35 x 25 cm). In English and Turkish. Many color and b/w plates. 2 volumes set: (1119 p.). In 1905, three frères (priest-teachers) at Saint Joseph High School in Constantinople - and their pupils began to collect plants from both sides of the Bosphorus, particularly around Kadiköy. Their aim was to create a comprehensive herbarium (plant collection). Before drying the first specimens, the frères classified them according to the biologic and botanic knowledge of the day, and then recorded this information on specially-prepared labels. The frères pursued their endeavour, despite occasional interruptions, until the mid-1970s. The result was a 2,253-specimen herbarium from Istanbul-Kadiköy and its environs: the first and only extant such collection. Continuing the European tradition of taking inventory of the natural world, these three valuable teachers at Saint Joseph conducted scientific research on the flora of Istanbul, a magnificent city that is the common heritage of human civilization, and then preserved the fruit of their labour for all of humanity. This unique plant collection lay dormant in Saint Joseph High School until it was unearthed by Professor Mehmet Sakinç. Devoting long years to studying the collection's 2,253 specimens in light of new scientific developments, Professor Sakinç identified 1006 distinct species - all of which appear in this book under 436 genus and 87 families.

Kagithane Province of Istanbul (Constantinople) City based on Ottoman archival documents. "Kagithane (Turkish pronunciation: [ka??t'ha?ne]) is a working class district of the city of Istanbul, Turkey, in a valley inland from the upmarket Etiler. Built along a stream that runs into the Golden Horn. In the time of Suleiman the Magnificent the valley was known as 'Sadabad' and used by the Ottoman court for hunting, riding and equestrian sports. The valley was full of wonderful tulip fields and in spring people would come along the stream for picnics and days out of the city. There are records of gatherings such as wedding parties being held here. By the late Ottoman period the valley floor had been drained, weekend homes had been built in the valley with lovely gardens, and the area led into the richly forested parks of Kagithane and Alibeyköy ideal for parties and picnics. The Ottoman gunpowder factory was the first industrial activity in the valley and dated back to the early Ottoman sultan Bayezid II. Kagithane then became home to numerous factories including flour mills and the paper factories that give the area its name. The area was still far from the city and not heavily populated until the late 20th century. Until then there were gypsy camps in the valley (and there is still a large gypsy community in Gültepe today). Real growth came to Kagithane from the 1950s onwards, as the area was settled by migrants from Anatolia, who came to work in the factories, workshops or building sites. They built small cottages on the valley sides, then brought family, friends and neighbours from the village to live in one of the rooms while they built their own cottages nearby. As many Turkish rural areas have been impoverished for decades there has been no shortage of people prepared to opt for this lifestyle in Istanbul. None of this building was regulated or controlled in any meaningful way and whenever there is a big rain people in Kagithane are flooded out of their homes. And the houses were scattered all over the sides of the valley with no thought for where they could put roads, drains or any other infrastructure. And Istanbul is vulnerable to earthquakes. This working class district was a centre of left-wing support during the years of political violence in the 1970s. From the 1970s onwards as the second generation grew up the cottages have been pulled down and replaced with grubby, bare-walled six-storey apartment buildings to house the offspring of these families. Kagithane develops".
