A database of images and information
During his voyage to Jamaica, Sir Hans Sloane collected botanical specimens which were the first plant specimens to be brought back to England from that region. The specimens were mounted in seven bound volumes, which have been preserved intact. They remain an invaluable resource for both scientific and historical research.
