Hull, John
The British Flora or A Linnean Arrangement of British Plants. With their generic and specific characters select synonyms English names places of growth duration times of flowering and references to figures. Parts 1 & 2
Manchester: R. & W. Dean 1799. First edition. Two parts in one volume octavo pp viii 1-227 i second title page 229-449 i slight age-toning and the very odd fox-mark but really very clean internally contemporary tree calf slightly worn at the corners re-backed with a new calf spine the original label preserved. A rare work and especially so with its second title page preserved; this was frequently discarded because of the continuous pagination. Soulsby - add. 772. Blanche Henry 861 - "Hull took up botany as a relaxation from medical duties". She also comments that of the other edition the second of 1808 only the first part exists. John Hull M.D. was born at Poulton in Lancashire in 1764 and received his medical education at Leyden where he graduated doctor of medicine 18th May 1792. He settled at Manchester and devoted himself especially to the practice of midwifery and held the appointment of physician to the Lying-in Hospital there. He was admitted an Extra-Licentiate of the College of Physicians 6th June 1806 and a Licentiate 25th June 1819. Dr. Hull died on the 17th March 1843 in Tavistock Square London the residence of his eldest son. Dr. Hull was an accomplished botanist and a sound practical physician. First Edition. Full Leather.

Crantz, Heinrich Johann Nepomuk
Stirpium Austriacarum Pars I & II continens fasciculos tres cum figuris aeneis - Volumes 1 & 2 Professor Isaac Bayley Balfour 's copy
Vienna: Krauss 1769. Two volumes bound in one quarto illustrated with 18 folding engraved plates age-toned the final plate a littlre frayed at the fore-edge and neatly repaired at the folds two main title pages six sub-title pages to the fascicles and six dedication pages all with engraved vignettes several engraved tail-pieces pp xii 508 8 a little age-toning throughout occasional spotting and foxing but otherwise sound smartly bound in a fairly modern half-calf slightly rubbed.As usual it is the second printing of the first volume and the first edition of the second. The first title page has the blind stamp of Isaac Bayley Balfour. As well as Regius Keeper of Edinburgh Botanic Garden Balfour had the distinction at various times of being Professor of Botany at Glasgow Oxford and Edinburgh. Crantz was a botanist but primarily a physician lecturing in obstetrics. As an extremely sharp-sighted and sensible observer - and in a scientific dispute with his contemporaries Jacquin and Linnaeus - he discovered and named for example the genus Camelina and many new species such as Pedicularis rostratocapitata Veronica orchidea Veronica dillenii. Potentilla crantzii and Noccaea crantzii = Thlaspi alpestre are named for him. The six fascicules are dedicated to different botanical societies or natural historians including Saverio Manetti Albrecht von Haller and the Dane Petrus Ascanius a pupil of Linnaeus. Hunt 603; Pritzel 1954. . Half-Leather. Good. Krauss Hardcover

Steudel, EG E G
Synopsis Plantarum Glumacearum: Part 1 - Gramineae
Stuttgart: J.B. Metzler 1855. Large octavo pp viii 474 ii some foxing and age-toning throughout but otherwise very sound internally bound in half cloth and marbled boards probably early twentieth century slightly rubbed. One of the cornerstones of nineteenth century grass taxonomy. The second part concerned Cyperaceae. RARE and one of the best possible provenances - Eduard Hackel's copy with his extensive manuscript notes and insertions throughout. It then passed to the Dutch agrologist Pieter Jansen who gifted it to C.E. Hubbard after a visit to the Kew Herbarium. ERNST GOTTLIEB VON STEUDEL was born at Esslingen am Neckar in Baden-Württemberg. He was educated at the University of Tübingen earning his medical doctorate in 1805. Shortly afterwards he settled into a medical practice in his hometown of Esslingen and in 1826 became the chief state physician in what had become the Kingdom of Württemberg. In 1825 together with Christian Ferdinand Friedrich Hochstetter 1787-1860 he organized an organization in Esslingen known as Unio Itineraria Württembergischer botanische severein. The purpose of this society was to send young botanists out into the world to discover and collect plants in all of their varieties thus promoting and expanding botanical studies and herbaria throughout the Kingdom and beyond. Hochstetter himself traveled to Portugal Madeira and the Azores and Steudel was able to create a herbarium of over 20000 species. EDUARD HACKEL 1850 - 1926 was an Austrian botanist. HE studied at the Polytechnical Institute in Vienna and became substitute teacher at a high school in St. Pölten in 1869. He became full professor of natural history there upon obtaining his teaching certificate in 1871 and remained in this position until his retirement in 1900. He published his first agrostology papers on grasses in 1871 and soon became known as a world expert agrostologist on the grass family Poaceae. While he himself undertook only a single collecting trip - to Spain and Portugal he was charged with working up collections of grasses mainly from Japan Taiwan New Guinea Brazil and Argentina. Apart from agrostologisty systematics Hackel also contributed to the morphology and histology of members of the grass family. The genus Hackelochloa Poaceae is named for him. C.E. HUBBARD of RBG Kew was probably the foremost grass taxonomist of the twentieth century. First Edition. Half cloth and boards. Good. J.B. Metzler Hardcover

Moris, JH [+ Alberto della Marmora) J H
Flora Sardoa seu Historia Plantarum in Sardinia et adjacentibus insulis vel sponte nascentium vel ad utilitatem latius excultarum Carta della Sardegna annessa alla 1a parte del viaggio in cetta Isola del Colonello A. della Marmora. 2da Edizione.
Taurini: Ex Regio Typographeo Three volumes 1837 - 1843. A partial set of one of the rarest of Mediterranean floras. Illustrated with 96 very fine engraved plates including 3 bis plates - XXXIII LXXVII LXXXVIII a double-page engraved map of Sardinia rather foxed quarto pp xii 606; 562. ii plates volume 96 plates of 114 remarkably clean internally contemporary half calf and cloth the spines with raised bands and black morocco labels slightly rubbed and scuffed a little wear at the corners. The engravings are by by L. Fea S. Botta H. Mil and A. Nizza after drawings by M. Lisa and J.C. Heyland; there is a presentation inscription in Latin in the first volume from the author to Sir Charles James Fox Bunbury. Lacking the final volume which was not published until 1857. The fact that the plates volume is here labelled Volume III suggests that Bunbury received these from the author in 1843 and the final volume was never presented. The author was a botanist at Cagliari then at Turin where he subsequently became Director of the Botanical Gardens. His primary investigations were on the flora of Sardinia of which this work is the first and still the most complete and detailed account. Sir Charles Bunbury was a keen botanist and geologist with a particular interest in paleobotany. He collected plant specimens on expeditions to South America in 1833 and South Africa in 1838. He also accompanied his great friend Sir Charles Lyell the geologist on an expedition to Madeira. He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1851. From Bunbury the set moved to the Leipzig collector and antiquary Oswald Weigel with his small stamp. Also in each volume is the later bookplate of Kenneth Lazenby a founding member of the Alpine Garden Society. The map is an addition to the published work and is equally rare - "Carta della Sardegna annessa alla 1a parte del viaggio in cetta Isola del Colonello A. della Marmora. 2da Edizione. Carte de la Sardaigne annexee a la 1e´re partie du voyage en cette Ile par le Colonel A. de la Marmora.". Although lacking the later volume this set remains very attractive due to its condition provenance and the additional map. First Edition. Half-Leather. Very Good. Ex Regio Typographeo Hardcover

Bradley, Richard
New Improvements of Planting and Gardening both Philosophical and Practical in Three Parts. To which is added that scarce and valuable tract intitled Herefordshire Orchards. The sixth edition with an appendix treating of several matters omitted
Paternoster Row & St Paul's Churchyard London: J & J Knapton; A Bettesworth & C. Hitch; J. Pemberton & D. Browne 1731. Sixth edition. The title pages to parts II and III are dated 1730 as is Hereforshire Orchards;the title page to the appendix is 1731. Thick octavo pp xiv 608 25 with an engraved frontispiece and thirteen engraved plates of which eight are folding several plates are folded awkwardly and several have frayed margins but only one has very slight loss of the engraved surface and it is this one which protrudes slightly from the fore-edge some age-toning occasional small splash marks a little wear throughout light early manuscript notes on the front endpapers contemporary full calf a bit worn and marked but perfectly sound lacking tiny pieces at head and tail of the spine the remains of a contemporary manuscript label on the spine. A reasonably good copy of one of the most influential of eighteenth century gardening books. Blanche Henrey 503. Little is known about Bradley's childhood aside from an early interest in gardening and the fact that he lived in the vicinity of London a city at the time with many amateur naturalists. Though Bradley lacked a university education his first publication Treatise of Succulent Plants gained him traction with influential patrons like James Petiver and later Hans Sloane. With their support he was proposed and elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1712 at the age of 24. Two years later Bradley visited the Netherlands and took an interest in horticulture. He spent the next decade back in England writing treatises on topics related to this central interest like weather fertiliser productivity and plant hybridisation. In recognition of his work in the field and with the thereafter unfulfilled promise that he would found and fund a university botanical garden the University of Cambridge named Bradley its first professor of botany in 1724 a position he would hold until his death. As Bradley was not a wealthy man in his later life and as this was an unsalaried position the newly minted academic continued to focus most of his efforts on making a living through publishing. According to his rival and successor John Martyn as well as his successor son Thomas Martyn Bradley did this at the expense of his students whom he reportedly neglected to even lecture to. Bradley made notable innovations and discoveries across a wide array of disciplines. For example this work included directions for the making and use of a rudimentary kaleidoscope to aid in formal garden design and layout. He also wrote about cooking and was the first to publish recipes in the English language using the then-exotic pineapple as the main ingredient. His History of Succulent plants was the seminal treatise on the topic and his studies of tulips and auriculas helped further accurate theories of plant reproduction. Bradley was also a pioneer in the examining of fungal spore germination and the pollination of plants by insects. His publications additionally contained information on how to build and use greenhouses early theories regarding agricultural productivity and pond ecology. . Sixth edition. Half-Leather. Fair.
