13 volumes bound in 5. Illustrated with 76 + 27 (Supplement) fine hand-colored engraved plates. Folio, recently rebound in quarter red morocco over marbled boards.

The Bonaparte volumes are generally without tissue guards. There is slight offsetting from the plates to the text in Vol. 1; the plates themselves are clean and bright. The text of Vol. is foxed, occasionally heavily, but the plates are unaffected except for one, which is foxed. The tissue guards are present in Vols. 3 and 4, in which the text is tanned and/or foxed (occasionally disfiguringly); but the plates are all miraculously clean and fine. Additional postage may apply. …

Volumes I-VI are first issue, Volumes VII, VIII and IX reissued with the alterations and corrections by Ord made after further ornithological information had been gleaned and First Edition of the Bonaparte volumes with the first volume in rare first state. The nine Wilson volumes beautifully illustrated with 76 superb hand-coloured engraved folio plates by Alexander Lawson, J.G. Warnicke, G. Murray and Benjamin Tanner from original drawings by Wilson, depicting a vast array of American birds. The Bonaparte volumes are illustrated with 27 additional richly hand-coloured folio plates from drawings by Titian Ramsay Peale, A. Rider and (plate 10) by Audubon and A. Rider Folio, 36 x 27 cm. and Folio 38 x 29 & 39 x 32 cm., The Wilson volumes in contemporary mottled calf over marbled paper covered boards, the spines gilt decorated within compartments separated by fine gilt tooling, two compartments lettered and numbered in gilt, some volumes restored at the backs to style and in effort to match the original spine panels though the tooling is slightly different considering the unavailability of the original tools. The four Bonaparte volumes in fine period red morocco over marbled paper covered boards. The spines fully decorated in gilt. vi, 158; xii, 167; xvi, 120; xii, 100; xii, 122; xx, 100; xii, 138; xi, 162; ccxxiii, [i], 298, [4 General Index] pp. Complete + [viii], 105; [x], 95; [iv], 60; [iv], 142 pp. Quite a handsome set in pleasing condition, the usual spotting in places, usually from offsetting from the plates, a few expert repairs to old closed tears in the text, the plates all quite well preserved with much less spotting or browning than is usually found. One volume with a bit of evidence of old damp at the edges of the prelims. Vol. VI with a bit more spotting or foxing than the others as is usual due to the paper, this confined to some of the textual pages, An excellent set. The Bonaparte volumes in very handsome bindings as well, some of the usual offsetting and browning throughout the volumes as is typical with the paper used. Generally, in all volumes the plates are quite clean and the spotting is confined to the text and tissues. The paper used for the text in these sets was prone to foxing and offsetting, spotting and splotching, but fortunately, the paper used for the plates was of a better quality and so, as in the copies being offered here, the plates are generally quite clean with some minor spotting on occasion and then, usually confined to the outer margins. The bindings on the Bonaparte volumes are in original state and offer a very handsome and especially appealing presence. FIRST EDITION OF TWO OF THE MOST IMPORTANT BOOKS IN THE HISTORY OF AMERICAN ORNITHOLOGY AND COLOUR-PLATE PRINTING, INCLUDING THE FIRST GREAT WORK ON AMERICAN BIRDS. "The story of Alexander Wilson's spasmodic rise from Scottish peddler and failed poet to the father of Am[rican ornithology is a cloyingly American story. Numerous "types", those we recognize from the writings of Benjamin Franklin through the literature of James Fenimore Cooper to the Jacksonian businessman emerge in his journey. It is a journey that takes him from the small town of Paisley in West Scotland to the shores of Delaware where he lands, a penniless immigrant, over vast tracks of the eastern United States, and finally to Philadelphia; here, like Franklin, he finds renowned associates from Charles Wilson Peale to Thomas Jefferson to Thomas Paine and the international recognition that he had craved since his first poetic jottings as a youth in Scotland. The tragic irony of this American story is its truncation; indeed, it is Alexander Wilson's exhaustingly extreme dedication to his ornithological studies, and the illnesses contracted during his Leatherstocking-esque roamins through the forests that kill him at the age of forty-seven, just as he attains the station in life he so desires. An immigrant who embraced so fully the "American Dream" of constant industry leading to financial and personal reward, Wilson achieved his dream, but scarcely lived to enjoy it. Perhaps though, Wilson did achieve what he truly desired; in 1805, frustrated by attempts to gain help in publishing his ornithology, he swore to continue on his own, even if it killed him: "I shall at least leave a small beacon to point out where I perished." (Ord, p. 61). This declaration transcends Americanness; Wilson seemed to fear that in the vast cauldron of humanity, he would be subsumed. His Ornithology, then, which has earned him title of the father of American ornithology, seems the work of a talented and driven man whose desires in life were met too well by the American attitudes and mores of the early nineteenth century." The book is of considerable importance. Vols. VII-IX, revised by George Ord were reissued in 1824-1825 The Bonaparte volumes were designed as a supplement to Wilson's American Ornithology. Originally intended to be issued inn 3 vols. 1825-1828, it is now considered imperfect without the final 4th volume, 1833. Born in 1803, Charles Lucien Jules Laurent Bonaparte, 2nd Prince of Canino and Musignano was a French naturalist and ornithologist, and a nephew of Napoleon. He emigrated to the United States from France and Italy in 1822, but before leaving Europe he had already discovered a warbler new to science, the moustached warbler, and on the voyage he collected specimens of a new storm-petrel. On arrival in the United States, he presented a paper on this new bird, which was later named after Alexander Wilson. On his arrival in America Bonaparte set about studying the ornithology of the United States and updating Wilson's Ornithology. The revised edition was published between 1825 and 1833. His other publications included "Observations on the Nomenclature of Wil.…
