Episode notes
Dr. Charles Budd Robinson was an enthusiastic botanist with a love of all things green, often undertaking scientific expeditions into remote areas of Southeast Asia in search of new discoveries. It was during his final expedition in December 1913 that he would meet a tragic end, allegedly due to one of the most unfortunate translation errors in the history of linguistics.
