Excerpt from Botanical Features of the Algerian Sahara
In a country where travel away from the beaten path is not without discomfort, it is important that the way be made as smooth as possible, not alone for comfort but for personal safety as well, and it is therefore a pleasure to acknowledge the many kindnesses shown by the civil and mili tary authorities of the French colony, as also by the American consul and vice-consul at Algiers.
