Cloth, skiver spine-label, gilt cover-device, patterned endpapers, large 4to, xxxii, [3], 276, [1] pp, colour ills. 100 entries. From a contemporary review by Amy Meyers in the Huntington Library Quarterly: "Like many of the publications Raphael describes, her own volumes are exquisitely designed and printed. The reproductions o…f prints from illustrated books are superb, replicating the colors of the originals as closely as possible, and a number of bindings are reproduced so beautifully that the books almost appear to be resting on the page. Such palpable images of omate bindings and lavish illustrations reinforce for Raphael's readers the great importance given to horticultural treatises by the European aristocrats and Americans of wealth and standing who used them in the creation of their gardens." Textblock edges faintly spotted, otherwise Very Good.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 4to (29.5 cm), xxxvi, 277 pp. Publisher's cloth and dust jacket. "An Oak Spring Pomona" is the second in a series of catalogues describing selections of rare books and other material in the Oak Spring Garden Library, a collection formed by Mrs. Paul Mellon. The Pomona desc…ribes one hundred books and manuscripts about fruit, with illustrations taken from some of the most beautiful books on the subject as well as from original drawings and paintings. The earliest book described is Bussatos Giardino di Agricoltura of 1592, the latest The Herefordshire Pomona, an encyclopedia of apples and pears from the 1870s. In between there are fruit books large and small: La Quintinie's Instruction pour les Jardins fruitiers, Duhamel's Traite des arbres fruitiers, and many others. The book is divided into sections on fruit-growing in France and Britain, fruit elsewhere in Europe, and fruit in America, as well as citrus fruit, apples and pears, peaches and soft fruit, grapes, melons, and tropical fruit. Each description gives the background of the book and its relationship to others and is accompanied by illustrations of its contents in color and black and white.".
