Quarter Leather. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. F. P. Nodder (illustrator). First Thus. "Thirty-Eight Plates, with Explanations; Intended to Illustrate Linnaeus's System of Vegetables, and Particularly Adapted to the Letters on the Elements of Botany", by Thomas Martyn, B.D. F.R. & L.S.S. Regius Professor of Botany In The University of Cambridge, A New Edition, London, Printed for Longman, Hurst, Rees, Orme, and Browne; Baldwin, Cradock, and Joy; J. Cuthell; J. Mawman; Lackington and Co; J. Black and Son; and J. Booth, 1817, "ADVERTISEMENT, Some persons, who have honoured the Letters on the Elements of Botany with their approbation, having signified a wish that the subject might be still farther illustrated by figures, Mr. Nodder, an ingenious artist, has been employed for this purpose, and has both drawn and engraved thirty-eight plates. These plates, with their explanations, may be considered as an entire work; but it is presumed that they will be much more satisfactory when studied jointly with the Letters. Six plates are given to illustrate Rousseau's six letters upon the most remarkable Natural Classes. The rest are intended to explain the classes of Linnaeus's System in their order, except the thirty-fourth, which exhibits figures of the most remarkable Nectaries." etc. These plates are beautifully drawn and hand-colored. Each plate has the following printing: Drawn and Engraved by F. P. Nodder, Published May 1788, As the Act Directs by B. White and Son. The book has been rebound with new end-papers with leather spine and cloth boards, otherwise all is original with the most exquisite hand-colored plates.72 pages numbered plus 38 hand colored plates (One-sided).

Book
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Lovely antique 1794 leatherbound botany book containing "Letters on the Elements of Botany. Addressed to a Lady. Translated into English with Notes, and Twenty-Four additional Letters, fully explaining the System of Linnaeus," which is also bound with "Thirty-Eight Plates, with Explanations; Intended to Illustrate Linnaeus's System of Vegetables, and Particularly Adapted to the Letters on the Elements of Botany." The book is overall in very good condition with some minor signs of wear and age. It is beautifully illustrated with 38 hand colored botany plates. The book has been recently rebacked with a new leather spine & label. The covers have some scuffing and wear. The binding is good and sound. The interior is lightly toned from age but is mostly nice and clean with some scattered light foxing. Page 303/304 has chipping flaw to the side margin which most likely is the result of an error in the printing process; no text is affected. One of the pages in the table of contents has a repaired corner. Along with that there may be the very occasional page with some kind of other minor imperfection such as a tiny chip or tear, creased page corner, light bit of soiling or grubbiness, minor stain or marking, etc. Generally though, it's a nice copy. The book measures approximately 8 1/2 inches by 5 3/8 inches and is 503+72 pages long.
