Add to basketCondition: Good. Restored contemporary marbled calf with raised bands, barely discernible label and red sprinkled edges. Narrow gilt borders on cover, cover edges decorated in blind. Spine heavily worn and flaky. Minor spotting in places. Contemporary note on front endpaper. Soulsby A catalogue of the works of Linnæus 3582. Cox…A reference guide to travel literature I:230. Pritzel Thesaurus of botanical literature 3841, the note. Foreword written by the publisher Linnaeus. Hasselquist's collections of natural-history specimens were acquired by Queen Lovisa Ulrika and incorporated into the Drottningholm Collections after his death in Smyrna in 1752, at the age of only 30. The work is one of the first descriptions of the natural history of Palestine and was translated into German in 1766, French in 1768 and 1769 and Dutch in 1771. According to a foreword the work has been translated by a "gentleman" who is not English by birth and has spent time in Sweden as a disciple of Linnaeus. On p. 297 the anonymous translator mentions a letter from Linnaeus to John Ellis, written in 1765.
