Some offsetting on and front and rear cover leaves from other manuscript documents, final printed page with additional manuscript annotation. Browned and foxed. Good. An exceedingly scarce 1800 Havana imprint that publishes a tract from 1797 that delivers instructions and suggests potential improvements for animal husbandry in Cuba. The author, Juan Antonio Morejon, offers advice on the raising of cattle and mules, gives guidance for increasing reproduction, and provides sample budgets outlining the costs for Cuban haciendas of following his guidelines. "Sobre uno y otro punto dir�, no solo aquello conduce al mayor aumento de las haciendas, sino tambien � mejorar sus crianzas, pues la felicidad que buscamos, no debe consistir unicamente en la abundancia, sin el requisito de bondad, � qu� �s tan inclinado nuestro suelo." Recorded in Medina, however we cannot trace any copies currently in institutions or ever to have appeared at auction. SABIN 50589. MEDINA, HABANA 168.

Description:
1870 1ed Domesticated Animals Mudie FARMING Agriculture Horses Color Illustrated

Robert Mudie was a 19th-century English journalist who took a special interest in ornithology and domesticated animals. This interest developed into several books on birds and 'pet' animals including 'Domesticated Animals'. This charming first edition of Mudie's work on domesticated animals focuses mainly on farm animals – horses, swine, poultry, goats, etc. – and how they differ from their wild counterparts. This work is finely illustrated with beautiful full-color engravings.

Dust jacket price 28.95 is NOT clipped. For millions of Americans, Solomon D. Butcher's photographs epitomize the sod-house frontier. His late-nineteenth-century images from western Nebraska constitute the most extensive photographic record in existence of the generation that settled the Great Plains. The faces are unforgettable: jaunty bachelors and earnest husbands, Civil War veterans of both armies, spinster sod busters and determined mothers, cowhands, farmhands, and former slaves. All in search of land of their own. Originally published in 1985, this first book devoted to Butcher and his photographs presents a unique visual chronicle of Great Plains settlement and established Butcher's place in frontier photography.

Description:
[6], LXXIV, [2]; [4], [10] pp.Presentation copy of one of the most beautifully produced works on cattle, by the "zootechnician", Émile Baudement (1810-1864). The 87 plates of bovine animals are arranged by origin, each region with its own part-title: England, Holland and Denmark, Switzerland and Germany, (the empire of) Austria, and France. Many of the excellent plates are after photographs by Adrien Nadar. Artists like Emile van Marcke, Isodore Bonheur and Barye contributed to this work. "The plates were produced by a mixed process of photographic transposing on to a metal plate (heliography) followed by handwork of various kinds - soft ground etching, mezzotint and aquatint, the background tint being achieved by lithography" (Boalch).While regular copies are bound in green half roan, with plain cloth sides, the present set is bound in red half morocco, with gold-blocked red cloth sides with the note "offert par le Minstre de l'Agriculture".

We assume the tongues were imported to England from Russia. Though no date or city appears on the label we do find mention of this delicacy in an advertisement for the "Fortnum, Mason & Co." Piccadilly "Foreign Ware House" in the Dec. 29 1882 issue of "The Pembrokeshire Herald and General Advertiser" (a Welsh newspaper digitized and available online). One handwritten correction. Very good to near fine with light staining mostly to recto. Rare glimpse into the preparation recommended for a dining delicacy that would appear to have long since fallen from favor.
