réf. 019713George Yard Lombard Street: William Phillips Published 1803 - 1804. First Issue. Thee volumes well illustrated with an engraved portrait frontispiece and 119 hand coloured plates as usual the plates are erratically bound but all are present all edges gilt in Volume 2 bound in modern blue cloth with only very slight signs of use. Despite the rather plain binding the contents are overall in remarkably bright condition. There is a little offsetting of plate on to text and occasionally of text on to plate but there are only six plates where this is really noticeable and of these plate 91 is rather poor. In Volume 1 the second plate is bound slightly on a skew so that the margin protrudes slightly at the top and fore-edge; in Volume 2 a number of the descriptive leaves are bound together at the end rather than opposite the plate they describe. Volume 3 concludes with Thortnon's "Sketch of the Life and Writings of the Late Mr William Curtis 33 pages. Ignoring the minor oddities of the set there is a remarkable freshness about the paper quality and the colouring. . First Edition. Cloth. Good. William Phillips Hardcover

1773réf. 015679London: S. Hooper 25 Ludgate-Hill 1773. Second edition greatly improved. Illustrated with one plate foxed octavo pp xxxii 298 2 136 slight age-toning and blemishes heavier spotting and foxing between pages 77 and 98 possibly caused by the different paper of the plate otherwise very sound and tight contemporary half calf and marbled boards rubbed and slightly worn rebacked at some point with the old spine laid down the spine now slightly worn at head and foot. With armorial bookplate of Peter Clutterbuck and a slightly odd offset on the facing blank. RARE. Weston was originally a thread-hosier of Leicester but in some of his anonymous works describes himself as "a country gentleman". In 1773 he was living at Kensington Gore but later was living at Leicester where he was secretary of the local agricultural society. From the number of his published works it is evident he had a very wide knowledge of plants and plant literature. Blanche Henrey 1490 - "Richard Weston 1733-1806 appears to have had an excellent knowledge of nursery gardening and nurserymen's sale catalogues. He was interested in agriculture and all forms of horticulture and he also made a study of horticultural and botanical literature.Weston's first important published work appeared in 1769 anonymously. This was his Tracts on practical agriculture and gardening. At the end of this volume and in subsequent editions of the work is a very useful 'Catalogue of English authors.on husbandry gardening botany and subjects relative thereto''. This catalogue is greatly extended in this rare second edition. Second edition. Half-Leather. Good. S. Hooper, 25 Ludgate-Hill Hardcover

Second edition, folio, half-title, [2], 56 (pages 29-32 misbound after page 36), [2, errata leaf]pp. 57 lithographed plates, orig. boards, rubbed at extremities, with a rather crude cloth reback. The second edition of these interesting and beautiful designs for landscaped gardens, by Gabriel Thouin (1747-1829), brother of the celebrated botanist Andr? Thouin to whom the work is dedicated. Strongly influenced by contemporary English garden designs and the idea of the "picturesque", these parks are noteworthy for their elegance and ease which retains some of the great French tradition of formal gardening. There are designs for municipal and private parks and also for fruit gardens, orangeries, vegetable plantations etc. The margins of the plates, beautifully lithographed by C. Motte, show designs for buildings meant to adorn the gardens; among the more exotic there are several ruins, both classical and mediaeval, Chinese pavilions, arabic coffee houses, pagodas and a host of other small buildings and garden ornaments.
