Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Second edition, corrected. Illustrated with a frontispiece and nine engraved plates (of which eight are folding), [Apparently lacking one plate], small octavo, pp [iv], xxxv, (i), 43,[iii], (4), 35-309, (vii), much of the text rather browned and age-toned, a fair few signs of use, though all very tight, the first fifty pages or so have a fair anount of pencil notes and underlinings (see illustration), with a little more on pages 179-199, contemporary calf, rubbed and cracked but sound,rebacked with a fairly recent calf spine, raised bands, new endpapers, (apparently by Bayntuns). The folding plates are rather worn and creased, occasionally frayed at the margins; two have old sellotape repairs, and one is rather badly torn across but without loss. The pagination is erratic, and appears incorrect, but it actuall ties in exactly with the contents pages at the rear. In this copy "An advertisement of J. Evelyn, Esq.", as mentioned by Blanche Henrey, is bound immediately after the title page. LACKING ONE PLATE. {Quintinie was in charge of the royal fruit and vegetable gardens under Louis XV. "His book shows his deep knowledge of every aspect of kitchen gardening" - Taylor. George London and Henry Wise were garden designers and nurserymen, and formed one of the most important garden design practices in the history of British gardening. They designed formal gardens very much in the tradition of Le Notre, and London was also royal gardener to William and Mary.].
