Sobre este artículo
Philadelphia: Atkinson & Alexander (first volume); Samuel C. Atkinson (second volume), 1828 & 1830. First Edition. Hardcover. Minor chip here and there; plate 26 with clean horizontal tear with no loss; contents generally clean and binding Fine. Overall Near Fine. Two duodecimo (4-1/4" x 7-1/4") volumes bound in recent burgundy cloth-backed off-white boards with title information printed in black on both boards and printed white paper spine labels, new endpapers. Illustrated with 100 plates printed in green ink on varying sheet sizes. In this work, of which a projected third volume was never published, Rafinesque attempted to provide a comprehensive guide of native flora for the use of American doctors and pharmacists. Rafinesque made important botanical explorations on his 2,000-mile tour, mostly on foot, to the west of the Alleghenies in 1818. This work includes a number of previously unpublished Native American remedies.
