In this letter to Leander Wetherell, a journalist and teacher at the Rochester Institute of New York, Gray discusses two of his publications: Manual of the botany of the northern United States (1848) and Genera florae Americae boreali-orientalis illustrata : the genera of the plants of the United States illustrated by figures and analyses from nature (1848). The letter is written on a lettersheet advertising the Lawrence Scientific School. Along with a description of the school, its admission requirements and course information, the letter announces that "Professor Agassiz will deliver a course of lectures 'On the History of the Earliest Geological Ages.'"
