With 17 folding plates. lxxx 383 27 10 pp. 1 vols. 4to. Important work on the cultivation of trees by this prolific 18th-century polymath and savant 1700-1782 member of the Royal Academy who published over 100 separate during his prolific lifetime on a wide range of subjects which engaged his passions for chemistry botany agronomy and naval architecture. His most important contribution to agriculture was perhaps his introduction of the methods of cultivation of Jethro Tull into France with his publication in of TRAITÉ DE LA CULTURE DES TERRES 1750-1761. But Duhamel was above all a great advocate of the Tree in France and his numerous works on the cultivations of trees and shrubs as well as forests and forest maintenance are among his most important contributions. Previous to this work Duhamel had published his TRAITÉ DES ARBRES ET ARBUSTES QUI SE CULTIVENT EN FRANCE 1755; and LA PHYSIQUE DES ARBRES 1758. This continuation of "notre travail sur les Forêts" the author says in his Preface is in this case "purement pratique"; and his aim to place simplified methods of cultivation "within the reach of all sorts of readers." He divides his work into six books: 1 on terrain exposure climate choice on trees; 2 Different methods of propagating trees; 3 Care of young trees; 4 Transplanting; 5 Forests; 6 Maintenance of Woods and Revitalization of damaged Forests. illustrated by the fine line engravings this is indeed the work Duhamel most intended for a practical audience.

DSB. DUHAMEL DU MONCEAU Henri-Louis 1700-1782. His major interest and contribution to technology and society was in agriculture. The first half of the eighteenth century had witnessed the beginning of a technological renaissance in agriculture chiefly in England where it was notably celebrated in the writings of Jethro Tull whose major work Horse-Hoeing Husbandry was published in 1733. Although the ideas of Tull and Duhamel enjoyed substantial popularity among a progressive group of French landowners the opposition - either in the form of active criticism or in the passive inertia of an almost medieval agrarian society - was too strong for France to enjoy the rapid agricultural changes which occurred in England and shortly after in Scotland. However enough progress was made for Duhamel to receive recognition for his pioneering work during his lifetime. DSB. Paris. chez H.L. Guerin & L.F. Delatour. 1760 hardcover
