17754402888London: F. Newberry 1775. Twelve duodecimo volumes with 117 engraved plates of 118 lacking plate XXVII 'Black tiger male panther and lynx'; preliminaries thumbed title of one volume perforated and another significantly browned one leaf of text ink-stained general foxing and offsetting; original sheep leather binding scuffed with split hinges; worn as is often the case with juvenile literature of this period but a charming set. <p><p>A comprehensive natural history encyclopaedia for young people based on Pennant's system of classification. Animals are arranged according to quadrupeds fish birds and insects and each of these classifications is separately indexed. Besides the more usual natural history descriptions of animals vegetables and minerals this work is the first to describe for children Australia's most famous marsupial -- the kangaroo. The entry under the Jerboa vol. III p. 172 reads "Mr. Banks brought home the skin of an animal which he calls the kanguroo sic which from its general outline and the most striking peculiarity of its figure greatly remembers the jerboa yet it entirely differs in size and in many of those minute distinctions which point out the general ranks of nature. The kanguroo is often known to weigh above fifty pounds."</p> <p>The kangaroo was first seen by both Banks and Cook on 24 June 1770 and the first description of it appeared in Hawkesworth's Account of the Voyages published in 1773: "I should have taken it for a wild dog if instead of running it had not leapt like a hare or a deer. Mr. Banks also had an imperfect view of this animal and was of opinion that its species was hitherto unknown." During the remainder of the exploration of the east coast of Australia Cook records that both he and Banks shot and ate kangaroo on several occasions. He records two in particular that weighed eighty pounds and fifty-four pounds the skins of which Joseph Banks took back to England with him.</p> <p>Illustrations of over four hundred animals finely engraved in copper complete this charming eighteenth-century work intended solely to be used by children.</p> </p> .

184900003518London: Seeleys 1849 534 pages A reverend from the Church of England visits and criticizes the Roman Catholic Church and all it's manifestations. Corner of the boards are worn rounded top of titling on backstrip is missing starting front in rear although the binding is sound Some very minor stains on the pages but in general; the interior is very clean with a fair amount of illustratrations. The name plate of Cyrus Hall McCormick is on the front end page. Cyrus Hall McCormick invented the mechanical reaper which combined all the steps that earlier harvesting machines had performed separately. His time-saving invention allowed farmers to more than double their crop size and spurred innovations in farm machinery. Born in Rockbridge County Virginia Cyrus McCormick derived his interest in invention from his father a Virginia landowner who patented several improved farming implements and worked without success for many years to perfect a mechanical reaper. In July 1831 McCormick succeeded where his father had failed producing a model reaper with all the essential components of later commercial machines. Patenting his invention in 1834 after Obed Hussey had announced 1833 the construction of a reaper of his own McCormick started to manufacture the machine on the family estate in 1837. Six years later he began to license its manufacture in other parts of the country. In 1847 he set up a factory in Chicago founding what eventually became one of the greatest industrial establishments in the United States. An astute businessman McCormick increased his sales with door-to-door canvassing and written guarantees for his ready-to-assemble machinery. McCormick amassed a large fortune and invested widely in later years in railroad and mining enterprises. This info gleaned on the net. Seeleys hardcover
