In October 1891 Veitch embarked on a tour of inspection of the great Botanic and Public Gardens maintained by governments in various countries as well as visiting many private horticultural establishments to decide whether the Veitch gardens and nurseries might be enriched by further additions. He set off by way of Rome and Naples to Ceylon thence overland from Tuticorin to Lahore. He continued to Calcutta and on to the Straits Settlements. In Penang he visited the Botanic Gardens whose curator Charles Curtis was formerly employed by James Veitch & Sons as a plant collector before moving on to Singapore where he visited the Botanic Gardens. He then visited Johore before returning to Singapore in February 1892 when he climbed Bukit Timah the highest point on the island with Walter Fox curator of the Gardens. He then travelled to Buitenzorg West Java where he visited the Botanical Gardens. He also explored the crater of Kawah Papandajan volcano and visited Lake Bagendit near Garoet. His travels then took him to Japan where he met Charles Sprague Sargent of the Arnold Arboretum and they undertook a joint plant collecting expedition including ascending the Hakkoda Mountains together. After visiting Korea he reached Australia in 1893. However he found Australia disappointing and wrote that it was easier to collect seed in Japan where there was cheap labour; in Australia "no one will help". He complained that the seeds of many plants "were so tiny he did not know if he was collecting seed or dust". He sent to Kew a collection of dried specimens of 250 species from Western Australia. Later he visited the North Island of New Zealand before returning to England in July 1893. . Signed by Author. First Edition. Cloth. Fair. Printed for Private Circulation Hardcover

1849023028The Wernerian Club 1849. Published in three parts with title page printed in red and black and dated 1849-50. Octavo 143 pages slight occasional age-toning on the text pages two small marginal stamps of Worthing Public Librarybut otherwise extrmely clean internally. Recently bound in an attractive dark green loire cloth very slightly marked. RARE. The most complete edition in any language. Originally published in German in 1774 - "Von den äusserlichen Kennzeichen der Fossilien" - it was later translated by Thomas Weaver Dublin 1805 which had the benefit of incorporating manuscript corrections by the author himself additions which he had circulated amongst his pupils notes taken during his lectures in 1791-92 and hints from the mineralogies of his disciples Wiedenmann and Emmerling. This final edition published by the Wernerian Society incorporates these additions into the same text making them as near as might be to the same text. RARE. The Wernerian Natural History Society 1808 - 1858 commonly abbreviated as the Wernerian Society was a learned society interested in the broad field of natural history and saw papers presented on various topics such as mineralogy plants insects and scholarly expeditions. The Society was an offshoot of the Royal Society of Edinburgh and from its beginnings it was a rather elite organization. This publication was probably the last they produced as there were no meetings from 1850-1856 which coincided with the decline of the president Robert Jameson. It was eventually decided to close the Society down and dispose of its assets. Werner 1749 - 1817 was a German geologist who set out an early theory about the stratification of the Earth's crust and propounded a history of the Earth that came to be known as Neptunism. While most tenets of Neptunism were eventually set aside Werner is remembered for his demonstration of chronological succession in rocks; for the zeal with which he infused his pupils; and for the impulse he thereby gave to the study of geology. He has been called the "father of German geology". Cloth. Very Good. The Wernerian Club Hardcover
