British Flora Comprising Phenogamous Flowering by William Jackson Hooker (1 results)

Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. 2nd Edition. This is a UK hardcover second printing of this title published by Longman, Rees, Orme, Brown & Green in 1831. The photos show the condition better than I can describe, however overall I am grading as Good condition for its age. The book has a straight spine, with curled / scuffed corners and softened spine ends. The boards are grubby as you can see and the page edges heavily toned. The interior of the book is tightly bound with grubby end papers and, overall, clean text with the exception of the odd fox spot. There is an owner's name written in ink to the front end paper. The title page confirms the second edition, published in 1831. Randomly, but I love this sort of thing so I'm leaving it in, is a hand-written note from an unknown 19 year old clergyman's daughter confirming "Park Lodge" of Belvedere, Kent as a referee and her able to provide more.
