First edition of this wonderful production by the noted British botanist designed to depict all British fern varieties in nearly life-size formats through the chromolithography of Einrik & Binger. This was designed to serve as a key visual reference for the legions of specimen and herbarium collectors during the Victorian fern rage or Pteridomania where enthusiastic and often zealous during the last half of the 19th Century filled ferneries created fern cabinets and herbariums. Ferns varieties illustrated within encompass Royal Fern Broad Buckler Fern Harstongue Mountain Buckler Fern Holy Fern Brittle Bladder Fern and many others. Heath 1843-1913 was a noted British botanist civil servant editor of Gilpin’s “Forest Scenery†and a pioneering force in the Open space and Green Belt movements across Victorian England.

Contemporary pebbled black cloth Super-Lock post binder rounded corners typed label below glassine spine window minor shelfwear rubbing an excellent exemplar. A remarkable photo album documenting the recognized species of tobacco plants as established by Thomas Harper Goodspeed who established in his groundbreaking 1954 Genus Nicotiana 13 infrageneric sections grouping 61 then-recognized species of nicotiana by common and cytogenetic characters. Tobacco plants are widely used in plant virology due mainly to the large number of diverse plant viruses that can successfully infect them as well as serving indispensable in studies of genetic variation protein localization and purification. Goodspeed 1887-1966 originally worked as Curator of the University of California Botanical Garden and was the key figure in overseeing the Garden’s relocation to Strawberry Canyon before serving as its’ director from 1934 to 1957. He spent decades tracing the origins via hybridization of the many varieties of cultivated tobacco plants and close relatives including species of the genus drawn from the Americas Antarctica and Australasia.

Recent brown morocco leather in period style lettered in gilt on the upper cover 12mo 7.5 x 4.75 inches; 187 x 118 mm. This work is divided into five parts: I. De Methodi Origine & Progressu; II. De Notis Generum characteristicis; III. De Methodo sua in Specie; IV: De Notis quas reprobat & rejiciendas censet D. Tournefort; V. De Methodo Tournefortiana. According to Geoffrey Keynes in The Bibliography of John Ray p. 129: this work is a "continuation of the discussion began in the preface to the Stirpium Europaerum Sylloge 1694 and in the appendix to the second edition of the Synopsis Methodica Stirpium Britannicarum 1696. It was largely an answer to the criticism of Tournefort who received a copy in June 1697 and published a reply De Optime methodo instituenda in re herbaria in the same year." Geoffrey Keynes states that this work in uncommon; he was only able to record eight copies two of which are in the British Museum. No ownership marks and few signs of use.

This volume is number 1 presented to Fernwood Press Pty Ltd signed by the authors Dolf Schumann and Gerhard Kirsten. 'By far the largest of the genera in the South African flora is Erica: with 657 species to its credit. This fact is all the more remarkable when one considers its distribution. People from Europe need no introduction to their heaths which can splash the countryside with pink. Apart from the true heather Calluna the genus Erica contributes only 21 species to the heath flora of Europe. The bulk of the species of Erica are confined to the southern tip of Africa in a concentration that is not equaled by any other plant group in the world. The array of colors and forms of ericas here in the southern Cape province is both remarkable and overwhelming. In the pages of this volume is a photographic record of more than 450 species of one genus a remarkable feat for a flower book. This is the first time that so many species of Erica have been illustrated in a single work' modified from the foreword p. 9. Vlaeberg, South Africa: Fernwood Press, 1992. Limited edition. hardcover
First edition, part I all published, 8vo (190 x 115 mm), [12], 116pp., with the half-title and half-title, 5pp. list of subscribers, original boards, uncut, spine a little chipped, but still a very nice copy. This private botanical garden was originally opened by William Curtis in 1779 at Lambeth, but due to smoke pollution, he moved the plants to the larger gardens in Brompton. According to the Survey of London, "in 1789 William Curtis, the author of Flora Londinensis and the founder of The Botanical Magazine, took over from Rubergall as tenant and moved the botanical garden which he had opened in Lambeth in 1779 to this spot. The Brompton Botanic Garden, as it was known, covered about three and a half acres, almost exactly conforming to the area which is now occupied by the streets and houses on the hospital's estate, while the remaining four and a half acres to the north were used for experiments in agriculture. After Curtis's death in 1799 his partner William Salisbury kept the garden here until 1808 when he moved it to Sloane Street, Chelsea. He continued to use the ground at Brompton for a nursery, however, until 1829 when he was succeeded there by David Ramsay, whose establishment was known as the Queen's Elm or Swan Lane nursery." Rare; JISC locating just 3 copies (Oxford, Kew and Royal Horticultural Society Libraries).
First edition, 12mo (154 x 93 mm), 148pp., endpapers renewed, re-cased with new leather spine and corners, original printed boards, uncut, a very good copy. One of the great rarities of local natural history, printed on a home-made printing press at Llanrwst, Conway, Wales. John Jones (1786-1865), printer and inventor, "He kept a paper and bookshop, and printed much miscellaneous work for the locality. Sometime (? before 1817) he constructed three presses to the Ruthven design, so called after its inventor, Alexander Ruthven, which he then used for all his printing work. He also learnt to cast his own type and used many of his own letters and characters for the rest of his life."?(DWB). In 1936 the Science Museum acquired John Jones' press and equipment. Provenance: From the botanical library of Michael Walpole with his bookplate. Freeman, 4015.
