I thought something was off there… :)

Proven method, with which it is easy, and without a master, to get to know the Plants of the interior of France, and in particular that of the surroundings of Orleans. An infinitely useful book for people who spend part of the year in the countryside, and for young people in whom one wishes to inspire a taste for natural history.

In this context, “without a master” should be taken to mean without a teacher or instructor.
