Descrição:
Edinburgh & London: Printed by Neill & Co. (Edinburgh) for Adam & Charles Black (Edinburgh) and R. Havell Jun., and Longman, Rees, Brown and Green (London), and various others, 1835. Vols 1-3 (of 5), large 8vo. (9 3/4 x 6 inches). Half-titles. Numerous woodcut text illustrations. Prospectus for the Birds of America bound into rear of vol. 1. Bound to style in half calf and period cloth covered boards, spines ruled in blind, black morocco lettering pieces. First edition of the first three volumes of the separately-issued text for the elephant folio Birds of America, complete with the rare Prospectus. The genesis of the present work is interesting: as early as November 1826, Audubon had begun thinking about the text which should accompany his engraved illustrations of birds. He noted in his journal: "I shall publish the letterpress in a separate book, at the same time with the illustrations and shall accompany the descriptions of the birds with many anecdotes and accounts of localities connected with…

Descrição:
Edinburgh, 1831-1839.. Five volumes. A few in-text illustrations. Half title in each volume. Large, thick octavos. Modern buckram, printed paper labels. Bookplate on front pastedowns. Contemporary ownership inscription on titlepage. Some light foxing, primarily to first and last few leaves. Tear in half title of second volume, repaired with tape. Very good. This is Audubon's text, designed to accompany the elephant folio edition of THE BIRDS OF AMERICA, giving sketches of the birds described therein. Of great interest are Audubon's accounts of his travels and adventures in the American hinterland, scattered through the volumes as part of the bird descriptions and as separate anecdotes. Includes accounts of his experiences in the Florida Keys, along the Mississippi, and in Louisiana and Kentucky in the 1820s and '30s. Audubon published the text separately from the double elephant folio plates in order to avoid a stricture of the British Copyright Act of 1709 which would have required him to deposit a…

Descrição:
Edinburgh: Adam & Charles Black, 1834. First Edition, Signed presentation copy inscribed on the printed half-title: “Robt Bakewell Esq. With the very best wishes of his friend and obt servt, John J. Audubon. London, December 1834”. As recorded in Wikipedia: “Robert Bakewell (1767 – 1843) was a landmark English geologist. Bakewell was born in Nottingham in 1767. He was an able observer, and deserving of mention as one of the earliest teachers of general and practical geology. From 1811 onwards, he lectured on geology all over the country, exhibiting sections of rock formation and a geological map, the first of its kind. His Introduction to Geology (1813) contained much sound information, and reached a fifth edition in 1838. The second edition was translated and published in Germany, and the third and fourth editions were reprinted in America by Professor Silliman of Yale College. He died at Hampstead on 15 August 1843.” This book is Volume Two (of 5 volumes Audubon issued from 1831 to 1839…
