A popular and influential garden book by this famous writer, reformer, "muck-raker" and politician. Cobbett wrote the book "to cause the art of gardening to be better understood and practiced than it now is in America." William Cobbett (1762-1835), the son of a peasant f armer, makes clear his attitude toward gardeners in the preface: "The inside of a labourer's house, his habits, his qualities as a workman, and almost his morality, may be judged from the appearance of his garden. If that be neglected, he is, nine times out of ten, a sluggard or a drunkard, or both." The American Gardener was later revised and published as The English Gardener (London, 1829). **PRICE JUST REDUCED! W130.

GARDEN FLOWERS IN COLOR. A Picture Cyclopedia of Flowers.
320p. Each page illustrated with lovely color photographs. ** J. Horace McFarland Company's bookplate from their Art Department. Tall 8vo. Original full cloth binding, soiled. Hardbound. This copy was used in the printing office of J. Horace McFarland (1859-1948). McFarland was one of the first Americans to sound the call for environmental and scenic protection. In 1878, at age nineteen, McFarland opened his printing business and began to publish gardening and seed catalogs. Realizing that woodcuts did not adequately represent the plants, he started to explore the use of photography. By 1894, he was experimenting with color photography and his company had become America's premier publisher of gardening catalogs, with what may have been the first color photographs produced in the US. The success of his publishing business provided McFarland with wealth and security, and freed him to engage extensively in the philanthropy and civic activism he loved. He was recognized as a master gardener whose books and photographs on roses, trees and other subjects were famous across the United States. He wrote more than a dozen books on roses and made the American Rose Society a world-renowned institution. As president, he established a method of rose identification and registration that is still in use today. He was widely known as "Mr. Rose" and was a founder and president of the American Rose Society, which had an international impact on the propagation of roses. His home and garden in the Bellevue Park section of Harrisburg was an internationally famous testing ground for hundreds of new plant species. It contained 5,000 plants including varieties of roses. First edition. Nice copy illustrating in color popular flowers grown in the 1930's. One of the most famous books to use McFarland's photographs. PLANTS W133

Botanica: Melastome tè Melastoma theaezans
Eccellente incisione creata dal maestro Pierre Jean Francis Turpin. Le scritte indicanti la specie e la descrizione della pianta o animale sono in italiano e/o latino, e provengono dalla prima edizione italiana del Dizionario di scienze naturali edito da Battelli nel 1831. Quest'opera imponente era composta da 29 volumi ed era corredata da centinaia di incisioni che rappresentavano tutto il mondo animale e vegetale. L'opera deriva da un eccellente lavoro di luminari del XVIII secolo supportati dal Re francese Louis XV in seguito guidati dallo stesso Turpin, considerato al tempo il più grande incisore di botanica. La maggior parte delle incisioni sono firmate Turpin & Pretre. Le incisioni sono veramente eccezionali con una grande dovizia di particolari e dipinte a mano. Carta bianchissima e resistente di ottima qualità. Ogni incisione misura all'incirca cm 17x25. In buone condizioni.Superb engraving made by the master Pierre Jean Francis Turpin. The engravings are written in latin and italian and come from the first italian edition of Dictionary of natural sciences edited by Battelli in 1831. This imponent work was made up by 29 volumes and contained hundreds of engravings that represented all the plant and animal kingdom. This work derives from an excellent work of luminaries of the 18th century supported by the french King Louis XV and then directed by the same Turpin that was considered as the greatest botanical engraver of his time. The most of his engravings are signed Turpin & Pretre. The engravings are made in an excellent way with fine details and coloured by hand. Very white strong paper of good quality. Each engraving measures about 7x10 inches. In good conditions. Humidity stain in the lower edge.
