Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. 2nd Edition. A practical treatise on the culture of silk, adapted to the soil and climate of the United States. Hartford, Connecticut, P. B. Gleason & Co, 1839. Small 8vo. 96pp. With 5 wood-engravings in text. Publisher's printed paper boards. This well produced manual is one of the last serious investigations into the manufacture of silk in the USA during the 'mulberry mania (which) raged from 1825 . to 1844' (Hedrick). A variety of tree brought from the Philippines in 1824, originating in China, called 'Morus multicaulis' was believed to have all the qualities needed for fertile growth in the USA, and was said to have supplied 'food for the silkworms that produced the famous Chinese silks'. Comparable to the 'tulipomania' in the Netherlands, speculation on the tree became astronomical (figures of $30,000 profits on one acre are recorded). The collapse however began in the autumn of 1839 when disease struck; subsequent cold winters, especially that of 1844, combined to put an end to the 'mania' and remove the plantations. The author of the present volume (secretary of the Hartford County Silk Society, and editor of the Silk Culturist) here however swears by the 'Morus multicaulis' to the extent of assuring the public that American production can be considered held in reserve 'should the Chinese fail'. The work is an interesting document of the culmination of this 20-year phenomenon. The second edition, revised and improved. See U.P. Hedrick A History of Horticulture in America to 1860, 1950, pp216-218.…
