He emphasizes the role of insects in plant pollination and thus opened up new fields of research for subsequent botanists. Although this book first published in 1862 did not match the success of "On the Origin of Species" 1859 it did cement Darwin's reputation as a botanist. Many of his studies of English orchids were made near where he lived in Orchis bank" a place that is now a nature reserve and is still home to a large number of orchids insects and birds.

1877rif. 33614London: John Murray 1877. Second edition revised. With numerous illustrations. 8vo publisher's original green cloth lettered in gilt on spine and blocked in blind on the covers. xvi 300 Index 32 ads. pp. A handsome and pleasing copy bright and clean and beautifully preserved. EARLY PRINTING IN VERY PLEASING CONDITION. One of Darwin's most important but often overlooked works. The LIFE AND LETTERS of Darwin III p. 274 quotes Asa Gray as saying that "if the Orchid-book with a few trifling omissions had appeared before the 'Origin' the author would have been canonised rather than anathematised by the natural theologians" and noted that a review in the 'Literary Churchman' found only one fault "that Mr. Darwin's expression of admiration at the contrivances in orchids is too indirect a way of saying 'O Lord how manifold are Thy works.'" The book was concerned with working out in detail the relationships between sexual structures of orchids and the insects which fertilize them their evolution being attributed to natural selection and therefore was the first of the volumes of "supporting evidence" for his ORIGIN OF SPECIES. Although it was praised highly by botanists it did not sell well only about 6000 copies by the turn of the century. John Murray hardcover
