William Trelease records and papers, 1857-1912.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/61772665

This is a collection of records and professional and personal papers. Records document the growth of the Garden's library through the gift of the Sturtevant library and Trelease's innovative publication and exchange programs. Records also show the development of the School for Gardening and the Annual Report in its early years. Professional papers show Trelease's involvement with the Special Libraries Association, the Botanical Society of America, and the Academy of Science of St. Louis. Research papers document his research on a wide range of subjects, especially research on Pronuba and Yucca with Charles V. Riley. Some of Riley's notes and correspondence on this subject are with those of Trelease. Expeditions include the Harriman Expedition to Alaska in 1898, and Trelease's field expeditions to Mexico.
