Large volume contains first, and second. This work contains thorough descriptions of each wild flower, as well as their habitats and uses in medicine. Each series with 160 pages, and 40 colour plates printed on thick papers, more like finished paintings than prints. Several black and white in-text illustrations. Illustrated capital letter to each chapter head. The quality and charm of the plates together with a more than usually informative letterpress made the work an immediate success and it was several times reissued in various formats.

Published by Cassell And Company, Limited, London, ca.1898. Dark blue cloth boards with gilt lettering to spine.

Book Dimensions: 20 x 14 and Number of Pages (2 Series): 320

Condition
Firm and well bound copy. Light wear to boards’ corners, and minor rubbing to head and foot of spine. Internally; in good condition. An old name with neat ink on top front free endpaper page. Inner hinges are very good, and pages are tightly held at the gutter. Pages are clean with light foxing marks on first and last free endpaper pages, and to few pages. The plates are clean and bright (Please see pictures).

Frederick Edward Hulme
"Frederick Edward Hulme (1841-1909), naturalist and artist, was born in Staffordshire England, the son of Frederick William Hulme, a landscape painter. In 1870 he was appointed art and drawing master at Marlborough College, which was around the time he published Familiar Wild Flowers, his best known work. Familiar Garden Flowers was published later in his career, and the plates reveal the same level of skill and beauty exhibited in his earlier works."

Door Brexit trage levering en extra kosten. Papieren omslag zwaar versleten, boek zelf schoon en in prima staat. Ben er blij mee, het boek beschrijft de fysica zoals ik die 50 jaar geleden studeerde.

Book in fine condition, cover rather less: back dirty, spine very pale / discolored and front / pale with water spots. Pics look fotoshopped as they look better than in reality Inside is very good
