London: Adam Islip, Joice Norton, and Richard WHitakers, 1636. Leather. Very Good. 13.5" by 9.5". Not Stated. An early edition of John Gerard's important herbal, a sixteenth century guide to the proper care and maintenance of plants, illustrated throughout. The important botanical work of John Gerard, which was first published in 1597. This is the second edition with Johnson's expansions, and the third overall edition. Illustrated profusely throughout.'The Herball or Generall Historie of Plantes' was one of the most popular and essential works on gardening in the seventeenth century, a comprehensive resource on the growing and maintaining of plants, with details on their uses in medicine. Though incredibly popular, this was mostly a plagiarised English translation of Rembert Dodoen's 1554 herbal, 'Cruydboeck'. This expansion by Johnson addresses the controversy in the preface.

London: Printed by Adam Islip, Ioice Norton and Richard Whitakers, 1633. Second Edition overall and first Johnson edition. Hardcover. Very Good+. Second Edition overall and first Johnson edition. Hardcover. From the Library of Oliver Sacks. "This is the first edition enlarged and edited by Thomas Johnson (1595-1644) who corrected many of Gerard's more gullible errors, and improved the accuracy of the illustrations by using Plantin's woodcuts" (Hunt). "So great had been the progress of botany in the thirty-six years since Gerard's original publication, that Johnson added over eight hundred new species to the list, and seven hundred figures, besides numerous corrections. The work, which contains about 2,850 descriptions, is commonly known by the name 'Gerarde emaculatus,' given to it by Ray. Johnson seems, however, to have completed it in a year" (DNB). ESTC S122165; Hunt 223; Nissen 698; Henrey 155. Includes the famous title page engraved by John Payne featuring Ceres, Pomona, Theophrastus and…

London: Printed by Adam Islip, Joice Norton and Richard Whitakers, 1633. Second and Best Edition (first: 1597), the first to be edited by London apothecary and botanist, Thomas Johnson, who contributed extensived revisions and additions. “Gerard is perhaps the best remembered of all the English herbalists.” (Garrison & Morton). A barber surgeon, he supervised the gardens of Lord Burleigh and Theobolds and kept his own famous garden in Holborn for twenty years, for which he issued a list of plants cultivated, the first complete catalogue ever published of the contents of a single garden. According to Arber and the Osler catalogue, Gerard used as the basis of his herbal a translation of Dodoens begun by Robert Priest, but without any acknowledgment, while according to William T.Stearn (DSB), “to what extent Gerard was indebted to Priest’s work is quite uncertain…the Herball as published…was on the whole so massive a task that it seems charitable to credit [Gerard] with the whole. It remains…
