Description

Pp. 403. Original full tree calf, 12mo (7.25 x 4.25 inches). This volume covers not only the plants listed in Torrey’s “A Flora of the Northern and Middle Sections of the United States” (1823), but also the plants to be listed in a second volume of that work which was never published. This volume is collated complete yet it does have some peculiarities in its page numbering: page 85 mis-numbered 58, pp. 354-358 is repeated, page numbers 367-368 skipped but the text runs continuous and is complete. A very scarce work in its original binding.

Very Good

Some scattered browning to the text, endpapers show light foxing, small marginal stain to the top outer corner of the first 20 pages; overall this is a very good copy in a very attractive binding.
