Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. "Harper's New Monthly Magazine" was one of the pre-eminent American magazines in the nineteenth century. Maintaining a high standard of literary excellence, Harper & Brothers managed to acquire the works of many of the world's most esteemed authors for inclusion in their monthly journal. As well as fine literature, Harper's presented some of the most attractive engraved illustrations of the time. With exciting selections in literature, poetry, informative articles on history, current affairs, science and the arts, as well as astute editorial commentary, it is no wonder that "Harper's New Monthly Magazine" was as successful as it was. It is the second-oldest continually published monthly magazine in the country. This is "Harper's New Monthly Magazine", Volume 65, No 388, issued in September of 1882, as found still in its original wraps. A little further below will be found a partial Table of Contents.

Hardcover. Condizione: Fair. 1st Edition. First edition. Hardback, quarter buckram with marbled paper covered boards*. 23 × 15cm, ix + 196pp. *I think a previous owner has added the marbled paper covering, it is starting to peel off revealing the original grey card covered boards below. Ludwig was a passionate plant collector who introduced rare and tender species to Nymans, testing their hardiness in the English climate. This book is a comprehensive inventory of the exotic and native trees, shrubs, and flowers cultivated at Nymans over a 25-year period (1890-1915), which alongside listing plant names, his daughter Muriel included notes on propagation, hardiness, glasshouse care, and outdoor performance. The winter of 1916/1917 was harsh, and the final two pages are a record of plant losses. In a nod to the Great War, it is a roll of honour as the plants are listed as having been killed, damaged, or severely damaged. Muriel Messel completed the manuscript in memory of her father's work, but she passed away from influenza in December 1917, just months before the book was published. Condition: A fair copy. As mentioned above, the marbled paper covering is detaching from the boards though I don't think this was original. Corners a bit bumped, tanning to the page edges, handmade paper a little wrinkled as is normal. The inner binding is pulled a bit throughout the book but remains secure. Otherwise the book remains in good readable condition.…
