Provenance: With the ink library stamp of the Mercantile Library Clinton Hall NY on the title-page of each volume and on each plate affecting the image. First published in French in Paris between 1810 and 1813 with only 138 plates and in English in Paris in 1819 and reprinted on both sides of the Atlantic many times. The edition with Smith's "notes" as here was first published in 1850-1851. The current edition was the last to be issued with hand-coloured plates all subsequent editions being issued with colour-printed plates. In 1785 Michaux accompanied his celebrated botanist father Andre Michaux 1746-1802 "to North America on a royal commission to explore the forests for trees that could be grown in France. Though the elder Michaux sometimes took his son on his journeys he generally left him to look after the nursery that he had established near Charleston South Carolina in 1786. "Michaux returned to France for further education in 1790. He matriculated in medicine and after graduation most probably from the old Medical School now known as Ren� Descartes University spent time studying botany at the Jardin des Plantes. His father returned to Paris in 1796 but left again on the Baudin voyage to Australia in 1800. Michaux began to seek an opportunity to continue his father's work in North America. With the support of Jean Chaptal minister of the interior he sailed for America and arrived at Charleston South Carolina on 9 October 1801. He had been instructed to close down the nursery at Charleston for economic reasons and he sent back to France those seedlings he thought worthy of cultivation. A New Jersey nursery established by his father had also been slated for closure but a compromise was worked out so that Pierre-Paul Saunier who had accompanied Michaux and his father to America could continue to operate it on his own. "In the spring of 1802 Michaux toured the forests of New Jersey with David Hosack and also visited Hosack's newly established Elgin Botanic Garden in New York. From there he made an extended visit to Philadelphia where he met William Bartram and saw William Hamilton's fine collection of trees at Woodlands. He then made a journey through Pennsylvania Kentucky and Tennessee before returning to Carolina and he met on the way many of his father's old acquaintances. From this trip he produced 'Voyage � l'ouest des monts All�ghanys' which was published in Paris in French in 1804 and published in London the year after in three different English versions. He returned to France at the end of 1803 to organize the shipments of plants and seeds that he had sent back and to make a series of reports on his work. Clearly by then he had formed the idea of producing a major work on the trees of North America. "In the meantime he devoted himself to a detailed report on American trees 'M�moire sur la naturalization des arbres forestiers de l'Am�rique septentrionale' published originally in the 'M�moires de la Soci�t� du D�partement de la Seine' 1805 and published separately in the same year. The report caused considerable interest. The French government accepted his recommendation to send someone to America to continue the shipment of trees and seeds and appointed Michaux to the task as he no doubt had hoped. He was in Paris until late January 1806 and then sailed for Charleston on 5 February. Three days out of Bordeaux his ship was seized by an English man-of-war and he was taken prisoner. When his captors realized that he was a botanist they treated him with respect and put him ashore at Bermuda. There he was permitted to make a survey of the natural history of the islands before being freed to continue his journey. He arrived in America in the middle of June 1806. "In the late summer he made a trip through western New York Pennsylvania and northeastern Ohio. In the spring of the following year he visited Maine and all the Atlantic states and later in the year made an expedition to Lake Champlain. The records of his travels during 1808 are scanty but in September of that year he visited South Carolina and Georgia and set out again to traverse the states on the west side of the Alleghenies. He then announced his imminent return to Paris to work on his proposed book. Before he left he arranged to carry out commissions for his friends in North America including dealings with booksellers in Paris. "Returning to Paris in November 1808 he began work on 'Histoire des arbres forestiers de l'Am�rique septentrionale'. The first edition appeared in Paris in three volumes between 1810 and 1813. As early as 1811 there was talk of an American edition to be published by Samuel Bradford the Philadelphia publisher but when his business failed Michaux had the English edition published in Paris in 1817-1819 under the title 'The North American Sylva' or a 'Description of the Forest Trees of the United States Canada and Nova Scotia" Ian MacPhail for ANB.

Provenance: Bookplate of Henry Shaw 1800-1889 to front pastedown. First edition in English first published in Paris the previous year. Michaux's classic narrative of travels west of the Allegheny Mountains. Michaux is most famous as a botanist and author of the comprehensive "North American Sylva." The 1800-mile journey chronicled in this book began when his father Andrew Michaux embarked on the Baudin voyage to Australia in 1800. "Michaux began to seek an opportunity to continue his father's work in North America. With the support of Jean Chaptal minister of the interior he sailed for America and arrived at Charleston South Carolina on 9 October 1801. He had been instructed to close down the nursery founded by his father at Charleston for economic reasons and he sent back to France those seedlings he thought worthy of cultivation. In the spring of 1802 Michaux toured the forests of New Jersey with David Hosack and also visited Hosack's newly established Elgin Botanic Garden in New York. From there he made an extended visit to Philadelphia where he met William Bartram and saw William Hamilton's fine collection of trees at Woodlands. He then made a journey through Pennsylvania Kentucky and Tennessee before returning to Carolina and he met on the way many of his father's old acquaintances. He returned to France at the end of 1803 to organize the shipments of plants and seeds that he had sent back and to make a series of reports on his work. Clearly by then he had formed the idea of producing a major work on the trees of North America" Ian MacPhail for ANB. Thomson 822. Howes M-579. Clark II 106. Sabin 48704. Graff 2780. Bradford 3461.

‎MICHAUX Francois A. Travels to the Westward of the Allegany Mountains In the States of Ohio Kentucky and Tennessee and Return to Charlestown Through the Upper Carolinas. London: J. Mawman 1805. 1st ed. in English. xvi 350pp. Folding map frontis. Circa 1900 paper covered boards with paper spine and printed paper spine label. Bookplate of former owner else a near fine copy. Three editions of Michaux's Travels were published in London in 1805. The present edition translated by B. Lambert and published by J. Mawman is the scarcest and much preferred of the three. Michaux was commissioned by the French government in 1801 to sell his father's tree plantations in Charleston. His journey lasted from August 1801 until March 1803 during which time he travelled extensively throughout the eastern central and southern U.S. Among his stops were Lexington and the horse farms of Kentucky; Nashville and Jonesborough Tennessee; Morganton North Carolina; and Chester Columbia and finally Charleston South Carolina. He comments heavily on the flora and fauna of Georgia and the Carolinas as well as on the health of the cotton and tobacco trades. A highly interesting account of a journey during which the author compiled much information for his later work The North American Sylva. HOWES M-579. Clark II 106. Graff 2780. unknown‎
