1699017670at the Spread Eagle in Westminster-Hall: M. Gillyflower 1699. Second edition corrected. Illustrated with a frontispiece and nine engraved plates of which eight are folding Apparently lacking one plate small octavo pp iv xxxv i 43iii 4 35-309 vii much of the text rather browned and age-toned a fair few signs of use though all very tight the first fifty pages or so have a fair anount of pencil notes and underlinings see illustration with a little more on pages 179-199 contemporary calf rubbed and cracked but soundrebacked with a fairly recent calf spine raised bands new endpapers apparently by Bayntuns. The folding plates are rather worn and creased occasionally frayed at the margins; two have old sellotape repairs and one is rather badly torn across but without loss. The pagination is erratic and appears incorrect but it actuall ties in exactly with the contents pages at the rear. In this copy "An advertisement of J. Evelyn Esq." as mentioned by Blanche Henrey is bound immediately after the title page. LACKING ONE PLATE. Quintinie was in charge of the royal fruit and vegetable gardens under Louis XV.

1693016899Spread Eagle Westminster hall : Matthew Gillyflower & James Partidge 1693. First English edition. Illustrated with an engraved portrait frontispiece nine engraved plates of eleven - so LACKING two plates a few small wooducts in the text many charming engraved chapter headings folio title page printed in red and black pp 42 188 208 4 80 the top bottom and fore-edge red a few blemishes internally but overall very clean the hinge before the frontispiece cracked but sound contemprary calf rebacked probably in the ealy nineteenth century a little bumped and worn the spine with more wear and a little splitting and fraying at the head and tail. An early un-named owner obviously a knowledgeable and proficient gardener has contributed half a page of manuscript notes on the first front blank in which he questions inter alia why the author has not included mustard-seed in the list of all things that a kitchen-garden should contain; there are also neat marginal notes throughout in the same hand - these are in no way detrimental and indeed enhance the book. Blanche Henrey 218. One of the most influential books in the history of fruit culture. Evelyn's edition though almost certainly the translation work of George London not only brought the French work to an entirely new audience it added short sections on the culture of orange trees and melons which were not in the original.
