185744114Philadelphia: D. Rice and A.N. Hart 1857. 3 volumes; together and uniformly bound with: Nuttall Thomas. The North American Sylva . not described in the work of F. Andrew Michaux Philadelphia 1859 3 volumes in 2; together 6 volumes in 5 large 8vo portrait frontispiece and 277 hand-colored plates many after Redouté and printed from the original French copperplates; some toning of the pages occasional minor spots and stains but generally a nice copy with attractive coloring; publisher's full brown blindstamped morocco gilt lettering on spine a.e.g.; minor rubbing and scuffing but on the whole a very good and pleasing set. "Few American color plate books had such lasting popularity as this classic work on American trees or as tangled a publication history . Thomas Nuttall travelled extensively in the South Midwest and West between 1815 and 1835. One of his goals was to gather materials to supplement Michaux's work. His work on American trees not covered in Michaux was first issued in 1842-1849 . In 1856 a fire destroyed the premises of the publishers of the joint edition. The Michaux copper plates were saved but the Nuttal stones were evidently lost and the later joint editions as here used new stones" Reese.

"It is no exaggeration to remark that it is the most complete work of its kind and is a production of unrivalled interest and beauty." Sabin 48695. The plates drawn for the original edition by the famous Redouté brothers and Pancrace Bessa feature the leaves berries flowers and nuts of trees from coast to coast. The Michaux volumes contain 156 hand-colored stipple engravings and the Nuttall volumes contain 121 hand-colored lithographs each showing the branch form leaf flower and fruit of the species. Michaux's work was actually carried out in the late 18th century Nuttall's in the early to mid-19th century. Michaux was first published in France in 1817 to 1819; the first American edition combining the work of both authors was published in 1841-1852. This edition uses new stones for the Nuttall lithography since the originals were destroyed in 1856. Reese Stamped with a National Character 21. Wm. Rutter & Co unknown books
1853WRCAM36567Philadelphia: Robert P. Smith Publisher. 1853. Three volumes. 156 handcolored engravings. Half title in first volume. with: Nuttall Thomas: THE NORTH AMERICAN SYLVA. Philadelphia: Robert P. Smith Publisher. 1853. Three volumes. 121 handcolored lithographs. Uniform contemporary green morocco stamped in gilt with botanical design on front and rear covers spines gilt gilt inner dentelles a.e.g. Front hinge of second volume of Michaux set cracked extremities lightly rubbed. A few fox marks mostly on text leaves with the plates generally clean and brightly colored. Overall a very good set in uniform contemporary bindings. In two cloth cases with separate chemises for each volume leather labels. An early issue of Michaux and Nuttall's classic work of American natural history. Originally published as separate works these titles merged into a regularly produced combined work of six volumes beginning in 1851. The Nuttall appears to have the same collation as the first edition of 1842-49. The Michaux has virtually the same collation as the 1850/51 and 1852 issues which precede it. The beautiful color plates were printed in Paris many after Redouté. The Nuttall contains 121 plates as in the first issue of 1842/46/49. The Michaux contains 156 color plates as called for on the titlepage six more plates than in previous issues. <br> <br> This publication is the most important work relating to American trees prior to the 20th century. It is the product of the efforts of two of the greatest naturalists to work in 19th-century America François André Michaux and Thomas Nuttall. The beautifully executed plates illustrate leaves and nuts or berries of American trees across the entire continent. Sabin says of the work "It is no exaggeration to remark that it is the most complete work of its kind and is a production of unrivalled interest and beauty." Michaux's work is based on his extensive travels in the eastern half of America and those of his father from the 1790s on. Both men were friendly with Jefferson and other leading figures who aided them in their work and travels. The plates were executed by the great French flower painter Redouté and his associate Bessa. The sheets of the first effort at reprinting the work were destroyed by fire but the copper plates were separately stored and thus survived to be employed in a later combined edition issued by Rice and Hart of Philadelphia <br> <br> Thomas Nuttall was one of the most intrepid American naturalists of his day travelling extensively in the Mississippi Valley and the Far West in the 1820s and '30s to gather botanical specimens. His work designed to supplement that of Michaux covers eastern species overlooked by the Frenchman and new species Nuttall had gathered in the Midwest and West. His work was first published in Philadelphia in 1842-49. The more up-to-date method of using colored lithographs for the plates was employed in the Nuttall volumes since the publisher did not have engraved plates in stock as was the case with the Michaux work. <br> <br> A handsome set in the publisher's original binding of a classic of American natural history.
