Riassunto

This oversize (10.5x14<">) paperback contains color reproductions on heavy paper of botanical prints by a 17th-century amateur botanist, making them suitable for framing. A short introduction by the British Library's manuscript scholar Nicolas Barker and scientific descriptions by GTrard A. Aymonin of each plant are provided. (The present book is excerpted from earlier volumes on the manuscript by each of these writers.) The high quality images make this an appealing volume for winter-bound gardeners and those interested in prints and garden history. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
