Hardcover. Later Edition. Six quarto (6-3/4" x 10-3/4") volumes bound in publisher's brown half-morocco leather with matching corners and marbled boards. Illustrated with 277 beautiful hand-colored plates, comprised of 156 hand-colored copperplate engravings in the three Michaux volumes and 121 hand-colored lithographs in the three Nuttall volumes. The lithographs in the Nuttall volumes are numbered through 121, but the numbering skips plates 30 and 31 (also skipped in text), and two plates each are numbered "5" and "10," as issued. The most important work on American trees prior to 1900. Michaux's work was first published in 1817-19 with the plates engraved by Redoute and his associate, Bessa, and those plates are used in this edition. Nuttall's work first appeared in 1842-49 supplementing that of Michaux covering trees in the Rocky Mountains, the territory of Oregon, California, and other areas of the U.S. and employing the more advanced technique of lithography instead of engraving. One of the classics of American natural history. BENNETT, page 76; SABIN 48695: "It is no exaggeration to remark that it is the most complete work of its kind, and is a production of unrivalled interest and beauty." Ex-Library but with minimal markings: labels and stamps on spine, blindstamp and small ink number to title pages; frontispiece portrait of Michaux trimmed and pasted on the front pastedown of the third volume. Plates generally clean with light foxing to maybe 10% of them, mostly in the Michaux volumes. Bindings firm with the two Nuttall volumes having clear tape over the spines. Overall Very Good.

MICHAUX, Francois Andre and NUTTALL, Thomas. North American Sylva; or A Description of the Forest Trees of the United States, Canada and Nova Scotia. Phila.: D. Rice & A.N. Hart, 1859. 5 Vols. 257 hand-colored plates (the Michaux vols. contain 156 handcolored engravings and the Nuttall vols. 121 hand-colored lithographs). 3/4 brown morocco over marbled boards, raised spine bands with compartments decorated in blind, gilt-lettered spines, A.e.gs. Library blindstamps on title pages, some light rubbing to boards, else very good or better. Bennett, p. 76. Meisel III, p. 436. Sabin 48695, 56351. This publication is the most important work relating to American trees prior to the 20th century. It is the product of the efforts of two of the greatest naturalists to work in 19th century America, Francois Andre Michaux and Thomas Nuttall. The beautifully executed plates illustrate leaves and nuts or berries of American trees across the continent. Sabin writes, "It is no exaggeration to remark that it is the most complete work of its kind, and is a production of unrivalled interest and beauty." Michaux's work is based on his extensive travels in the eastern half of America, and those of his father, from the 1790s on. Both men were friendly with Jefferson and other leading figures, who aided them in their work and travels. The plates were executed by the great French flower painter, Redoute, and his associate, Bessa. The sheets of the first effort at reprinting the work were destroyed by fire, but the copper plates were stored separately and thus survived to be employed in the later combined edition issued by Rice and Hart. Thomas Nuttall was one of the most intrepid American naturalists of his day, travelling extensively in the Mississippi valley and the Far West, in the 1820s and 1830s to gather botanical specimens. His work, designed to supplement Michaux's, covers eastern species overlooked by his predecessor and new species gathered by Nuttall. The publisher used the newer lithographic method for the Nuttall volumes, since they did not have engraved plates in stock, as they had for the Michaux.

"Two works in 6 volumes, 8vo (10 x 6 in.; 25.4 x 15.2 cm). Michaux: 156 handcolored engraved plates, many after Redouté and Bessa, some heightened with gum arabic; Nuttall: 121 handcolored lithographed plates; some toning, particularly in Michaux volumes. Contemporary deluxe publisher's black calf, covers with elaborate gilt borders of intertwined fillets and arabesques, fine central gilt emblem of Jalap bindweed, yellow-coated endpapers, edges gilt; first Michaux volume rebacked. THE MOST IMPORTANT WORK ON AMERICAN TREES PRIOR TO THE 20TH CENTURY. Originally published as separate works, these titles merged into a regularly produced combined work of six volumes beginning in 1851. The Michaux contains 156 color plates, as called for on the title-page, six more plates than in previous issues. "It is no exaggeration to remark that it is the most complete work of its kind, and is a production of unrivalled interest and beauty" (Sabin). "Few American color plate books had such lasting popularity as this classic work on American trees, or as tangled a publication history In 1856 a fire destroyed the premises of the publisher of the joint edition. The Michaux plates were saved but the Nuttall stones were evidently lost, and the later joint editions used new stones (Reese). Michaux's work is based on his travels in the eastern half of America, and those of his father, from the 1790s on. Thomas Nuttall travelled extensively in the Mississippi Valley and the Far West in the 1820s and 30s to gather botanical specimens. Designed to supplement Michaux, Nuttall's work covers new species he had gathered in the Midwest and West as well as eastern species overlooked by his French colleague.
