The present treatise on natural wonders is divided into 10 parts on different subjects. The sky and new stars, the elements, meteors, fossils or minerals, plants, birds, quadrupeds, invertebrates, fish and men are treated. The work was very popular, it was republished in 1633, 1661, and 1665. An English translation, A history of the wonderful things of nature was published in 1657. Later Jonston used this work as a basis for more specialized texts.

Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Fair. 2nd Edition. A fair copy of the extremely scarce Insectis section of Jan Jonston's famous work Historiae Naturalis. Jonston (1603-1675) studied botany and medicine and was a doctor. This copy is classed as 'fair' because it has been rebound in plain buckram binding without the title page, and the pape…r is very soft and lightly stained to the bottom outer corner margin. Contents are otherwise complete with 28 full page plates. The binding is clean and sound with gilt titles to spine. Contents: new endpapers; dedication 1p; Preface with plate list 3pp; Referenda ad pagninam 2pp with Plate I; text liber I pp 1-84; liber II 85-128; liber III 129-138; liber IV 139-147 with 27 further plates placed with relevant text; index 1p. Interestingly the final section includes starfish and seahorses. The contents are in very good clean condition apart from the paper damage mentioned above which has resulted in crumbling to the bottom corner of the dedication and preface leaf.
