    A new method of making the banks in the Fens almost impregnable So as in time to resist the force of rivers, in the most impetuous floods, and prevent all future inundations. With a new but certain method of preparing the lands therein, for the growth of our most valuable timber, viz. oak, elm, ash, &c. Particularly those extensive tracts of lands in the counties of Cambridge and Lincoln, &c. Also some observations on the River Cam; how to confine its bounds and improve its navigation; which may serve for a plan for any other inland river, &c. By John Harrison, botanist, nursery-man in Cambridge.

    Harrison, John, botanist. | Date: [1766?]
