Ferny Combs: A ramble after ferns in the glens and valleys of Devonshire
by
Charlotte Chanter
London: Lovell Reeve (1856). illus, pp. ii, 147.
Prepared by Michael Steer
Charlotte Chanter (1828-1882) was the sister of Charles Kingsley and wife of John Mills Chanter, a well-known Victorian pteridologist (fern specialist) and incumbent of Holy Trinity Church, Ilfracombe. Such was the vogue for ferns that this book, published in 1856, reached its third edition the following year. Also a novelist, she wrote a best seller with the splendid title Over the Cliffs in 1860. This rare and much sought-after book was produced digitally from a copy in the Bodleian Library collection and can be downloaded from Google Books. Google has sponsored the digitisation of books from several libraries. These books, on which copyright has expired, are available for free educational and research use, both as individual books and as full collections to aid researchers.
