17 folding engraved plates & engraved vignettes. 2 p.l., lxxx, 383, 27, 10 pp. Large 4to, cont. mottled calf, spine nicely gilt, red morocco lettering piece on spine. Paris: H.L. Guerin & L.F. Delatour, 1760. First edition and an attractive copy, complete with the two Additions. Duhamel (1700-82), French polymath, made notable contributions in agronomy, chemistry, botany, and naval technology. His major interest and contribution to technology and society was in agriculture. Duhamel “adapted Tull’s system to France based on his own wide reading in French agronomy and on original experiments.”–D.S.B., IV, p. 224. One of Duhamel’s main interests was the cultivation and use of timber; this is one of his chief books on the subject. “The sections of the book discuss the soil, the climate, and the choice of trees; their propagation; nursery gardens; planting; forests; and maintenance and re-afforestation, with all instructions based firmly on the author’s long experience of forestry.”–Raphael, An Oak Spring Sylva, 34. The attractive plates depict methods of grafting, agricultural implements, etc. Fine and handsome copy. Blindstamp of “Ovesholm” on half-title. This was the castle in southern Sweden built in 1792-1804 by Carl Adam Wrangel (1748-1829), who filled the building with a fine library, paintings, and sculpture. ❧ Stafleu & Cowan 1545.

Description
New York: The Universal Library / Grosset & Dunlap, 1960. Very good.. First trade paperback edition, number 95 in the Universal Library series. In writing this book, Baldwin did more than draw from his own experiences growing up with a religiously domineering father in 1930s Harlem: he wrote and re-wrote the work for ten years as a way to come to terms with the painful relationship with his father. In the novel as in Baldwin's own life, the hero's path to acceptance lies not in obedience and acceptance but in the intellectual liberation achieved through books and education. One of TIME's "Best English-Language Novels from 1923 to 2005," and an American classic. 8'' x 5.5''. Original color pictorial wrappers, UL95, cover price $1.45. Publisher's ads at rear. [10], 303, [2], [5] pages. Spine toned with a bit of creasing, a few spots of rubbing to rear wrapper, light edgewear.

N.p.: Amicus Productions, 1969. Vintage studio still photograph from the 1969 British film. Based on Margaret Drabble's 1965 novel "The Millstone." Produced by Amicus Productions, a company typically known for its blood-drenched horror films. Venturing into another genre, the studio produced this drama that follows Rosamund Stacey (Sandy Dennis), a bookish doctoral candidate who is perpetually dodging the sexual advances of the men in her life. This comes to an end when she meets George Matthews (Ian McKellen). The film was not a box office success, but ironically been called the best film produced by Amicus. Set in London, shot on location in England. 10 x 8 inches. Near Fine.
