Irwin Lynch, from W. Hill[...], Dec 1880' to half-title). An excellent association copy. Lynch and Darwin maintained a productive correspondence on plant movement in 1877-8, when Lynch was a foreman at Kew, and Lynch is mentioned twice in Darwin's text in relation to his work on Pachira aquatica and sleep movements of Averrhoa (at pages 95 and 330). In December 1878 Darwin wrote Lynch a letter of recommendation for the position of curator of the Cambridge University Botanic Garden, to which he was appointed the following year. Lynch is remembered as 'an exceptional horticulturist, one of the greatest and most influential of this period. His professional life was distinguished by his transformation of Cambridge University Botanic Garden and the reputation he created for the garden, his rare ability to combine horticulture with botanical science, [and] the contributions he made in hybridization and genetics' (ODNB).
