Sir William Jardine (1800-1874) was a Scottish naturalist. He is best known for writing and editing the 40-volume series of natural history books, The Naturalist's Library from 1833 to 1866. "In addition to the description and depiction (mostly finely coloured plates) by various well-known contributors to almost the whole range of the subject, the series is supplemented by biographies of famous naturalists of all times and all countries. It is well described as a remarkable little library of early nineteenth zoology, as well as a brief account of the lives of the chief zoologists of all time." (Casey Wood)
All in full leather binding, rebacked with honey-coloured leather spines, gold titles and volume numbers, original leather boards rubbed and scuffed, marble endpapers, all book blocks solid. All volumes complete with all steel engravings clean and bright with delicate handcolour. Supplement volume (Hummingbirds Vol. 3, published by H.G. Bohn, 1852) in original red cloth binding with gilt title on spine, blind stamped boards, cloth fraying and splitting on spine, 15 handcoloured steel engravings under tissue guards. Internally all remarkably clean and fresh.
Very good set of this ornithological classic.
