‎Histoire des Arbres Forestiers de l'Amerique Septentrionale consideres principalement sous les rapports de leur usage dans les arts et de leur introduction dans le commerce .‎

‎Paris: L'Imprimerie de L. Haussmann 1813. 3 volumes tall octavo. 9 3/4 x 6 1/4 inches. Half-titles 2pp. of errata at end of vol.III. 138 hand-coloured colour stipple engravings. Extra illustrated with a carte-de-visite albumen portrait photograph of the author by J.A. Whipple of Boston tipped in at the front of vol.I. Foxing to the text some minor offsetting to the plates. Expertly bound to style in half dark brown morocco over nineteenth century marbled paper-covered boards spines lettered in gilt Provenance: Theodore Lyman III 1833-1897 signature in each volume Theodore Lyman's copy of the original issue in French of Michaux's great work on North American trees including beautiful colour plates printed in Paris many after Redouté. This is the most important work relating to American trees published prior to the 20th century and excepting the unillustrated Arbustrum Americanum by Humphrey Marshall Philadelphia 1785 it is the first significant work devoted to North American sylva. In the English translation as The North American Sylva this book remained the standard work on the subject for most of the 19th century. It was the product of the efforts of one of the greatest naturalists to work in 19th-century America François A. Michaux who together with his father André was a pioneer in the natural history exploration of Eastern North America. The beautifully-executed plates illustrate leaves and nuts or berries of American trees across the entire continent. The English and Latin names are printed in the caption of each plate. Michaux's work is based on his extensive travels in the Eastern half of America and those of his father from the 1790s on. Both men were friendly with Jefferson and other leading figures who aided them in their work and travels. The plates were executed by the great French flower painter Redouté and his associate Bessa. At least two sets are known to have the date of 1813 on the title-page of the first volume most likely denoting a later issue. The first volume of this copy bears the correct date of 1810. The work was issued in twenty-four parts during 1810-1813. This set with provenance to American soldier and naturalist Theodore Lyman III. Lyman studied under Louis Agassiz at Harvard and continued his studies researching starfish off the Florida coast. After a European tour at the outbreak of the Civil War he served on General Meade's staff. Following the war he was a state Fish Commissioner a federal commissioner and one of the first scientists to advocate the widespread use of fish ladders known then as "fishways." He was a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and of the National Academy of Sciences a trustee of the Peabody Education Fund and an overseer of Harvard University. This copy extra-illustrated with a rare carte-de-visite albumen portrait photograph of F.A. Michaux by John Adams Whipple 1822-1891 of Boston after the daguerrotype portrait taken for Dr. Asa Gray during his visit to Paris in June 1851. Cf.

It was first published at Paris between 1810 and 1813 with 145 plates. The first English edition with 156 plates was published by Thomas Dobson at 1817 to 1819 under a false Philadelphia imprint. The plates were purchased by the American naturalist William Maclure who took them to New Harmony Indiana and produced the first American edition in 1841. He in turn left them to Dr. Samuel G. Morton of Philadelphia where they were first printed in 1850. The later Nuttall prints were done by hand-colored lithography. "Of the two works united it is no exaggeration to remark that it is the most complete work of its kind and is a production of unrivalled interest and beauty giving descriptions and illustrations of all the forest trees of North America from the arctic limits of arborescent vegetation to the confines of the tropical circle."

This publication is the most important work relating to American trees prior to the 20th century. It is the product of the efforts of one of the greatest naturalists to work in 19th century America Francois A. Michaux. The beautifully executed plates illustrate leaves and nuts or berries of American trees across the entire continent. Thomas Nuttall later continued the work begun by Michaux and of the combined work of both men Sabin states: "It is no exaggeration to remark that it is the most complete work of its kind and is a production of unrivalled interest and beauty." Michaux's work is based on his extensive travels in the eastern half of America and those of his father from the 1790s on. Both men were friendly with Jefferson and other leading figures who aided them in their work and travels. This edition was printed in Paris where the plates were engraved as well. Both volumes contain the Paris imprint of D'Hautel. The plates were executed by the great French flower painter Redoute and his associate Bessa. The sheets of the first effort at reprinting the work were destroyed by fire but the copper plates were separately stored and thus survived to be employed in a later combined edition issued by Rice and Hart. unknown‎

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 ADNB Howes M579; Sabin 48707. Weimar: F.C. pr. Landes�, 1805 unknown‎

‎Paris: Printed by C. d'Hautel 1819. 2 volumes octavo. 10 1/2 x 6 3/4 inches. 156 hand-finished colour-printed stipple-engraved plates after P.J. Redouté 27 P. Bessa 92 and others by Gabriel 108 Bessin 16 and others. Light foxing mostly to the text. Publisher's pink paper boards flat spines with black morocco lettering pieces. Provenance: Steven Longfellow signature in vols. 2-3; Henry W. Longfellow booklabels; autograph letter signed dated January 1853 to Longfellow from his sister Anne "I send you a keepsake from the Old House." First edition in English of Michaux's masterpiece and a classic of American natural history: the most important work relating to American trees published in the 19th century. With provenance to American poet Henry W. Longfellow. Michaux's work is based on his and his father's extensive travels in the eastern half of America from the 1790s on. Both men were friendly with Jefferson and other leading figures who aided them in their work and travels. The masterwork was first published in parts between 1810 and 1813 as Histoire des arbres forestiers de l'Amerique septentrionale. In 1817 Michaux began work on an English translation issuing a section of the text on oak trees believed to have been translated by Michaux himself with no plates which was then cancelled MacPhail 16. When the first edition in English was subsequently issued between 1817 and 1819 the first issue contained the text from the cancelled publication with the remainder of the text translated by Augustus L. Hillhouse of Connecticut. The subsequent issues contained the entire Hillhouse translation printed in Paris by C. D'Hautel and with page 112 numbered "112-136" to account for Hillhouse's translation being shorter than the previous as in the present set. The beautifully-executed images from the same plates in all three issues were executed by the engraver Gabriel and others after original drawings by the great French botanical artist Pierre-Joseph Redouté and his associate Pancrace Bessa. This third issue in two volumes is the most complete and accurate with corrections to plate numbers signatures and pagination. Of the issues containing the present Hillhouse translation Sabin writes: "Of the various editions with the text in English this notwithstanding some typographical errors is the best." And referring to Michaux's work with Thomas Nuttall's continuation Sabin continues: "It is no exaggeration to remark that it is the most complete work of its kind and is a production of unrivalled interest and beauty."
