Two vols, large 4to, pp.I: xiv, [ii], 306; II: [iv], 239, [1, blank], [12, index], with an additional engraved title-page (oblong) and a total of forty hand-coloured etched plates of animals and hunting scenes (watermarked 1817); slightly toned, text leaves somewhat foxed throughout as always (the plates largely unaffected), dedication leaf in vol.I creased; a good copy in contemporary red straight-grained morocco, covers with a wide floriated border in gilt and blind, spine gilt in six compartments, lettered and numbered directly in two, the others with a gilt block of a tiger hunting a deer; edges a little rubbed, corners bumped.Second quarto edition, one of the most beautiful of all hunting books, first published in 18057. Williamson served over twenty years in Bengal, and his pig-sticking, tiger-shooting, and buffalo-hunting adventures are described here, with lively illustrations after his original sketches by the self-taught sporting artist Samuel Howitt (1756/71822). His early work showed a debt to Thomas Rowlandson, his brother-in-law, 'but Howitt developed a more individual style as his career as a sporting artist progressed. He seems to have had an innate capacity for drawing animals, from commonplace hare and deer to exotic species that he studied in menageries. He was an animated draughtsman, and his drawings of hunts and sporting events have a fluidity and excitement fitting to the subject' (ODNB). The work was first published in twenty monthly folio parts for subscribers, with aquatint plates in 18057, and then in a reduced size edition of 18078, with the plates etched by Evans. Both the folio and the quarto editions were reprinted in 1819. Abbey, Travel 427 (1807); Czech, p.228; SchwerdtII, p.298 (1807 & 1808); Tooley 510.…

Hardcover. Condition: Very good. Second. Second edition. London: Howlett for Thomas M'Lean, 1819. Oblong broadsheet folio (17 13/16" x 22 7/16", 453mm x 570mm). [Full collation available.] With a pochoir illustrated-title and 40 hand-colored aquatint-engraved plates. Bound in late-XIXc green panelled morocco by Pfister Co. (their ink-stamp to the verso of the front free end-paper). In the corners, a stag, a fox, a lion and an elephant all gilt. On the spine, five raised bands. Title ("WILD/ SPORTS/ OF THE/ EAST") gilt to the second panel, author gilt to the fourth, imprint gilt to the tail. Gilt rolls to the turn-ins. Cream watered-silk end-papers. All edges of the text-block gilt. Sunning to the spine and peripheries. A little rubbing at the hinges, and along the peripheries. Fore-corners bumped. Evenly tanned, with offsetting at the plates. Tears to the edges of the leaves and plates, some repaired, seldom if ever affecting text or image. Lower fore-corner of leaf 12 restored (not affecting the text). Thomas George Williamson (ca. 1759-1817) served as an officer in the Bengal army of the British East India Company whose career was cut short for publishing in a newspaper his view of military policy. As such, he occupied a liminal position in British India, which allowed him to make rather more interesting observations than many of his co-evals (e.g., Cornwallis). Oriental field sports, first published in 20 parts in 1807 (reissued in 1808, and, per Tooley, "greatly inferior), is, as the long title suggests, an ambitious work that hazards far-reaching observations about Indian natural history, landscape and culture. Samuel Howitt (1756/7-1822) specialized in the illustration of animals; the pochoir (i.e., stencil-painted) title of a recumbent tiger is an emblem of British books on India. Bibliographers do not generally (Abbey notes the Young imprint) record the present edition, which has come to market with imprints of Orme, Young and McLean as here. The watermarks (seemingly to the text only) date to 1817 and 1818. Frank J. Pfister (ca. 1853-1935) established a book-binding firm in New York in the late XIXc, at times working with Alfred William Launder, the Metropolitan Museum's first bookbinder. Cf. Abbey, Travel 427 (first edn.); Nissen, ZBI 4416 (first edn.); Schwerdt II p. 298 (first edn.), Tooley 508 (first edn.).…

Samuel Howitt (1756/57?1822) was an English painter, illustrator and etcher of animals, hunting, horse-racing and landscape scenes. He worked in both oils and watercolors. Howitt was particularly noted for the illustrations in (Captain) Thomas Williamson's Oriental Field Sports (1807), based on sketches made by the author in India. He also illustrated several other works: Thoughts on Hunting (London: D. Bremner, 1798), Miscellaneous Etchings of Animals (50 plates, 1803); British Field Sports (20 coloured plates, 1807); The Angler's Manual (12 plates, 1808); A New Work of Animals (100 plates, 1811); Groups of Animals (24 plates, 1811); The British Sportsman (70 plates, 1812); Foreign Field Sports (110 plates, 1819)., Size : Folio (340 x 260 mm), A very attractive example, with original gilt binding.
