The object of this work restricted and is entirely practical. It is intended for Foresters and others, who may wish to make themselves acquainted with the immense variety of trees, shrubs, climbers bamboos and palms in the British Indian Empire. my hope has been that this book might facilitate the preparation of local Forest Floras, small portable handbooks, giving an account of the arborescent vegetation of limited areas, provinces or districts of the British Indian Empire.

Sir Dietrich Brandis KCIE FRS (1824 –1907, Bonn, Germany) was a German-British botanist and forestry academic and administrator, who worked with the British Imperial Forestry Service in colonial India for nearly 30 years. He joined the British civil service in Burma in 1856, shortly afterwards became head of the British forestry administration in all of Burma, and served as Inspector General of Forests in India from 1864 to 1883. He returned to Europe in 1883, dividing his time between Bonn and Greater London. In retirement he dedicated himself to scholarly work, resulting in the book Indian Trees (1906), his magnum opus. Brandis is considered the father of tropical forestry and has also been described as the father of scientific forestry. In addition to his work in India, he also had a significant influence on forest management in the United States.
