Descripción:
Poultry & Lombard Street, London: Charles Dilly & James Phillips, 1787. Octavo, pp xx, 51, a little age-toning and discolouration, the title page more marked and with a small old paper repair to the upper corner, a near contemporary signature - "R. Prime" - to the title page, otherwise very sound internally. in a later twentieth century simple quarter calf binding, a little marked and faded, the boards slightly bowed. Of great interest is the seedsman's advertisement bound in at the front - Observations on the Culture of the Mangel Wurzel, by Jenkins and Gwyther, Nursery and Seedsmen, New Road and in the Regent's Park. Ths extends to two and a half small sides, folded and marked, with the remains of an address and a postmark on the final side.

[Abbe de Commerell had a great interest in husbandry and made a special study of vegetable and fodder crops. Seed of…

Descripción:
London: Printed for Charles Dilly, 1787. xxxix, [1], 51pp, [1]. With a hand-coloured engraved plate. Uncut, stitched, as issued, in original publisher's blue paper wrappers. Without spine panel, lightly marked, a trifle spotted. The third edition, printed in the same year as the first, of this translation into English of the agronomist Abbe de Commerell's (d. 1799) monograph on the propagation and benefits of the Mangelwurzel, a variety of edible root vegetable predominantly used as fodder for domesticated livestock. The translator, physician John Coakley Lettsom (1744-1815), was first made ware of the pamphlet by Sir Richard Jebb (bap. 1729, d. 1787) in 1786 and immediately began importing and growing large quantities of seed which he distributed to farmers in Britain, Europe, America, and the West Indies. This third edition is notable for the inclusion of a hand-coloured engraved plate depicting the root not present in earlier printings. ESTC N30320.. Third edition. 8vo.

One hand-colored engraved plate. xix, 51 pp. 8vo, attractive antique calf-backed marbled boards (some foxing), spine gilt, red morocco lettering piece on spine. London: C. Dilly & J. Phillips, 1787. "Second edition" (but see below) of this translation of Commerell's work on the mangel wurzel, an uncommon beet developed in the 18th century as a fodder crop for livestock and, when harvested young, an excellent source of nutrition for humans. Commerell (d. 1799), chaplain to the Princess of Lowenstein in the German Lorraine and a member of the Société d'Agriculture de Paris, was interested in husbandry and wrote a monograph in French on the mangel wurzel. Lettsom (1744-1815), physician, philanthropist, and champion of improving projects, was much involved in the introduction of the mangel wurzel in Britain. When seeds of this vegetable were distributed to the Society for the Encouragement of Arts, Manufactures and Commerce, Lettsom received some, sowed them…
