015665London: James Ridgway & Sons Picadilly 1831 - 1837. Three volumes octavo with 230 plates pp lixi; 218 6; xxviii x 208; 205 2 a little age-toning and marking throughout in each volume there is one internal hinge cracking; probably contemporary half calf rubbed and fraying upper joints weak particularly so in the third volume. A duplicate from Worthing Reference Library with their attractive bookplate in each volume; a neat small circular stamp in the corner of each plate on the title pages and the occasional text page a shelf number on the spines. A cornerstone of fossil flora literature. The work served to catalogue many of the fossil plants recognized by the 1830s from Britain ranging in age from Carboniferous to Pleistocene. Together with contributions from Henslow Murray and Williamson Lindley and Hutton described illustrated and in some cases emended almost 300 species with many of their type and figured specimens having survived. By giving the first illustrated account of the microscopic structure of a fossil cuticle together with discussions about the origin of coal prehistoric climates experimental taphonomy and plant evolution "The Fossil Flora" was much more than a catalogue of fossil plants. Lindley must surely rank amongst his palaeobotanical contemporaries for having pioneered aspects of the science that remain topics of active research into the third millennium. First Edition. Half-Leather. Good. James Ridgway & Sons, Picadilly Hardcover

Ed Abbey had introduced me to Dave Foreman and the other Earth First!’ers the night before at Lone Rock campground on the shores of Lake Powell. After we 'cracked' the dam Abbey spoke to the crowd from the back of my 1954 flat black Chevrolet pickup in the Glen Canyon Dam Visitor's Center parking lot. For the next five years my truck became the Earth First! Stage and I became Spurs Jackson the minister of information. Early on I introduced John Zaelit aka the Zealot to Earth First! He became an EF! artist and activist until his untimely drowning on the Jordan River in 1986. John designed the poster for the first and only EF! Festival which starred Gary Snyder and the Acoma poet Simon Ortiz. Zaelit created the crossed club/monkey wrench logo for EF! and these signed limited edition prints were made for and donated to Earth First! by Zaelit." –Ken Sanders. John Zaelit unknown
