Oxford at The Clarendon Press, 1931. Translated into English by W. B. Grove and edited by A.H. Reginald Buller & C.L. Shear. Three volumes, folio, pp xx, 248 + 5 plates; xxi, 302 + 34 plates; xvi, 206 + 22 plates, amazingly clean internally, later black cloth with very slight marking, in the scarce dustwrappers which are slightly worn torn and marked. [Please note - The pages are uncut and partially unopened.] An unusually fine set. Extremely heavy - extra postage will be needed if sendin overseas or to remote parts of the UK. [The Tulasne brothers major contribution to mycology was the establishment of pleomorphism among fungi by a wealth of accurate and detailed observation, of which this work is the culmination. Originally published in Latin, 1861 - 1863, this English translation's title continues "exhibiting especially those facts and illustrations which go to prove that various kinds of fruits and seeds are produced, either simultaneously or in succession, by the same fungus". The original etched plates are reproduced here in collotype. "They depicted for the first time the conidia, perithecia, and asci of many important parasitic ascomycetes" (Reed. A short history of Plant Sciences), and have never been exceeded. ]. First English edition. Cloth. Very Good/Slightly worn and torn.

Hardcover is green with black trim and gold embossed author and title only on the spine.The Dust Jacket is ripped and taped and has some insect damage and torn corners.What makes this second 1933 edition book especially interesting, is that it is signed, small and unpretentious, in fine black ink by the author.The book is written in Czechoslovakian.The story is a Czechoslovakian version of "Robinhood" of sorts, a blend of fact and magical fiction of the mythical or legendary Nikola Suhaj, (depending on who you believe).The story takes place in Ruthenia, mostly after, but also during the First World War. This region is forgotten, and people here are very poor and their only livelihood is the forests, where they say God lives, witches cast spells, and there are enchanted places where even the wildlife won't go.
