Cloth. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. Illustrated with two charming hand coloured plates, 12mo, pp xxii, (ii), 260, (ii), very clean internally, original green embossed cloth with gilt title and decoration on the upper cover, corners slightly bruised, spine slightly faded, a split at the top of the lower joint, but overall a very good copy. SCARCE. The subscribers' list at the rear accounts for only 91 copies. [Thius copy has the signature, in two places, of Lindfield Borrer - presumably the son or nephew of the Sussex botanist William Borrer. This may well be a special subscriber's copy, as it contains pages xviii - xxii and the errata page which are not always present; it also has the text printed on the verso of each page only, so there are 125 blank pages for notes; most copies have pages paginated to 134.].
