Description

Lewes, privately published, 1878. 4to (27.2 x 21.2 cm). v, 31 pp.; 23 lithographed plates. Original half calf over iridescent cloth boards. Spine with five raised, gilt-lined bands and gilt title. = A well-illustrated work that faced much difficulty in being published, as acknowledged by the author - the English botanist William Charles Unwin (1811-1887) - in a loose, printed leaf bound in front. Originally it was published in 13 issues, the last containing the title, introduction and a list of subscribers. It was printed at the "Sussex Advertiser" Office (Geo. P. Bacon), but that is not the publisher. Spine and leather corners much rubbed; front inner joint broken, otherwise a very good, clean and complete copy of this rather rare work. Stafleu and Cowan, 15639.
