New York: Lyceum of Natural History, 1836. Small octavo, pp (208), (20), with one engraved plate and one folding table, the contents are firm and tight but rather aged and marked, with considerable wrinkling and waving and some staining. Bound in later green cloth, slightly worn and marked. A seperately published extract from the Annals of the Lyceum of Natural History. RARE. [Inscribed on the title page " Dr Booth, with the author's sincere respect, 1837". At one time acquired by the British botanist Francis Druce, who bequeathed it to A.J. Wilmott, and it has the latter's tiny initials on the front endpaper, and his blind stamp on the title page. There are a few neat lightly pencilled annotations, presumably either by Druce or Wilmott. In poorish condition, but a great provenance.]. Cloth. Fair.
