This book is a guide for rural agriculture consisting of six booklets: "Every Lady Her Own Flower Gardener," 119 pp, by Louisa Johnson; "Elements of Agriculture," (89 pp), by F.G. Skinner; "The American Bird Fancier" (of cage and house birds), (107 pp ) by D.J. Browne; "Essay on Manures," for promoting agriculture (60 pp), by Samuel L. Dana; "The American Kitchen Gardener," (vegetable and garden fuits), 120 pp, by T.G. Fessenden; "The American Rose Culturist," (roses and dahlias), 96 pp. Book is illustrated by engravings. Cover hinges are partly broken (front c. 50%, rear c. 80%); four corners rounded and some board showing; spine is rather fragile, the cover broken vertically and crosswise, with some evidence of a previous repair at this point. Both the endpapers are present and foxed a medium tan tone--this foxing extends into the text for two or three pages--rest of the text is almost fox-free and in very nice condition. Owner's name is written in pencil on the front flyleaf. Segment pp 73 to 91 in the Agriculture section are somewhat loose. Top three of the five strings have pulled through. Rest of the book seems tightly bound. …
