He, for example, was able to persuade the government at the time to include botanists in all future exploration expeditions. Although he never visited Van Diemen's Land, these correspondents were most eager to keep Hooker up to date with their discoveries and finds. Their letters coincide with his popular tenure at the University of Glasgow and the early years of his hugely important years as Director of Kew Gardens (he expanded the gardens, for example, from 10 acres to 75).
