Description

8vo. Orig cloth gilt. With 14 plates. First complete translation of a classic natural history/travel book originally published in Italy in 1790; a "rare systematic compendium of information drawn from both observation and secondary sources on the topography, history, institutions, agriculture, and industry of the individual states from Massachusetts to Georgia". About 1/4 of the book deals with descriptions of plants, the rest being a description of his travels, including in Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Vermont, Canada, New York, Georgia, Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey, Connecticut, Rhode Island.
