Summary "Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, 'Crocoite' to 'Cuba'" by Various is a comprehensive reference work written in the early 20th century. This volume serves as a slice from the extensive 11th edition of the Encyclopaedia Britannica that encompasses a range of topics from minerals like crocoite to geographical entries such as Cuba. The publication is characterized by detailed articles that provide insights into various fields such as science, history, and culture. At the start of this volume, the opening portion presents several entries that include information about crocoite, a mineral, and crocus, a flowering plant. The section details crocoite's properties and occurrences, including its use in paint and its discovery in the Ural Mountains. Next, the article on crocus discusses its botanical classification, cultivation, and characteristics, highlighting its appeal as a garden flower. These entries aim to enrich the reader's knowledge about these subjects, setting the stage for a wide-ranging exploration of topics that follow. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
