Aggiungi al carrelloBlack and white illustrations, xii + 256pp, index, from the library of Professor Anthony Reid with his name and a date on the front free endpaper, corners and edges of dustjacket a little worn, good to very good hardback copy. Illustrated with sixteen plates from the first edition of Ambonese Herbarium, The Poison Tree demonstrates why Rumphius was the greatest authority on tropical flora of the time, exercising considerable influence on subsequent research, and recognized as a major source by specialists in the field. The work is also an intriguing source book on native use of plants in the seventeenth century, native customs, lore, religion, and historical information.
