1759021234Avignon: Louis Chambeau 1759. Small 12mo measures 153mm x 92mm pp 156 a little browned and age-toned but very sound internally two folding engraved plates a little frayed and creased at the margins and again age-toned full contemporary calf worn at corners the spine dull joints a bit worn but still very sound. A delightful provenance - with the bookplate of C. Harman Payne author of The Florist's Bibliography. This is the only book I have seen from what must have been a notable library. Also with the bookplate of the naturalist Edward Heron-Allen. The plates are great fun showing florists' tools as well as hyacinths a bulb vase and something which looks more like a crocus planter. "Jean Paul Rome d' Ardène retired about 1750 from his duties as 'supérieur' of the college at Marseilles to the Château d' Ardène diocese of Sisteron where he created a botanical garden and gave himself to the study of flowers" - Hunt Catalogue. D'Ardene wrote similar works dealing with Ranunculus Tulips and Carnations It is interesting that Hunt had copies of those three but only mention this work in passing - they did not have a copy. Indeed it seems extremely rare - I can only trace three copies two in WorldCat and the Lindley Library copy. First Edition. Full Leather. Good. Louis Chambeau Hardcover

RARE AND A VERY GOOD COPY. Godfrey Howitt - 1800-1873 - was physician to the Nottingham General Hospital from 1829 to 1839 and was keenly interested in science and literature. He wrote this standard work The Flora of Nottinghamshire and discovered a new species of catchfly which grew on the Castle Rock. Professor John Wilson "Christopher North" of Edinburgh made the "Ettrick Shepherd" in Blackwoods Magazine described his as "Ane o' the best botanists in England an' a desperate beetle hunter." His ardent love for collecting accompanied him to Australia and he bequeathed his natural history collection and library to the Melbourne Museum The Howitt Collection. He also gave £1000 to found scholarships in Natural History in the University. In 1847 he became one of the first physicians to the Melbourne Hospital and had the experience of being paid his fees in gold dust by miners who consulted him professionally. . First Edition. Cloth.

A good working copy of a very scarce title. John Ray FRS 1627 - 1705 was an English naturalist widely regarded as one of the earliest of the English parson-naturalists. His classification of plants in his Historia Plantarum was an important step towards modern taxonomy. Ray rejected the system of dichotomous division by which species were classified according to a pre-conceived type system and instead classified plants according to similarities and differences that emerged from observation. He was among the first to attempt a biological definition for the concept of species. In the spring of 1663 Ray started together with Willughby and two other pupils Philip Skippon and Nathaniel Bacon on a tour through Europe from which he returned in March 1666 parting from Willughby at Montpellier whence the latter continued his journey into Spain. He had previously in three different journeys 1658 1661 1662 travelled through the greater part of Great Britain. But from this Continental tour Ray and Willughby returned laden with collections on which they meant to base complete systematic descriptions of the animal and vegetable kingdoms. Willughby undertook the former part but dying in 1672 left only an ornithology and ichthyology for Ray to edit; while Ray used the botanical collections for the groundwork of his Methodus plantarum nova 1682 and his great Historia generalis plantarum 3 vols. 1686 1688 1704. The plants gathered on his British tours had already been described in his Catalogus plantarum Angliae 1670 which formed the basis for later English floras. . First Edition. Full Leather. Fair.
