This long-running agricultural periodical covered all aspects of farming, agricultural science, land use, and rural affairs during a pivotal era of change in 19th-century Britain. Complete runs in uniform bindings are increasingly scarce.

This is a good complete set of 2 volumes of 'The Book of The Farm' by Henry Stephens, published by William Blackwood as a 2nd edition in 1849. The volumes are in very clean condition with little spotting, though as to be expected, there is some age-related discolouration to, and opposite the illustrations, please see detailed photos. They were previously owned by Gerald William Lascelles (1849-1928), an author and Deputy Surveyor of the New Forest, with his ex-libris label to the inner covers. The volumes measure just under 9.25 inches by 6.5 inches with the pair weighing 3 kilos. Please see my other rare and antiquarian books listed.

Great *RARE* antique leather book from 1743 on agriculture in Scotland. Photos shows that the title page is missing but photo 4 shows some publication information in pencil including title, date and author. Research shows that this was edited by Robert Maxwell, published in Edinburgh by Sands, Brymer, Murray and Cochran. Photo 15 shows that one of the content pages is loose but other pages are bound strong. Other pages inside are in great condition especially as the book is 280 years old. Discounted P&P for multiple purchases! (either send me an invoice request or i'll refund extra back to you) I try my best to genuinely describe good & bad points (if any!). Happy to answer any questions before you purchase. I post items same day if purchased before 10am (UK time) otherwise it will be post.
