Description
London: Printed by T.R. [i.e. Thomas Ratcliffe] and M.D. [i.e. Mary Daniel] for the Company of Stationers, 1672. Quarto (20 x 15 cm.), [148] pages. Pagination of final leaves of main text being mis-numbered. Signatures: A-T . Text in verse. Printers' names from Wing. A later (likely fourth) edition of just the second book on agriculture in the English language. Originally issued under the title A Hundreth Good Pointes of Husbandrie, Tusser's work, essentially a calendar accompanied by farming advice in doggerel verse, was first published in 1557. In 1573, the work was enlarged, and appeared as Five Hundreth Good Pointes... Like Fitzherbert's Husbandry (1523) before it, this work is part of the foundation of agricultural writing for the next two centuries. Tusser's work introduced the calendar form to agricultural books, a form which can be seen from the 16th century through to the present day. The other notable aspect of Tusser's work was that did not have the longevity of the calendar form, was the text in verse, really doggerel. It's been surmised that the doggerel was intended to appeal to the uncouth and uneducated farmers. A sad assumption, but then the doggerel didn't live on. ~ Light spotting throughout, otherwise internally clean and sound. In later but appropriate full calf, ruled, with six compartments and a title label. Near fine.
