Leather. Zustand: Very Good. First edition. A beautifully bound, uncommon work of natural history and ornithology. Sumptuously illustrated, with brightly coloured chromolithographs after Alfred Jacob Miller. Extremely scarce in this original publisher's deluxe morocco binding. This morocco binding is seldom seen, and not recorded by Bennett. (Bennett p.111). The first edition, first issue of this work. With twenty chromolithographs, after illustrations by Mrs C W Webber and Alfred J Miller. Miller contributes five illustrations, notable for their depictions of Native American life. Miller was a pioneering Baltimore-born artist, who accompanied Sir William Drummond Steward on his hunting journey to the Rocky Mountains. This is one of two works published containing Miller's illustrations. Collated, complete. The title page states that there are twenty-five coloured lithographs. This is misprint and this edition only contains twenty plates, as stated to the illustration leaf. Written by Charles Wilkins Webber, a journalist and explorer based in the United States. Webber also wrote 'Hunter Naturalist, Wild Scenes and Wild Hunders' and regularly contributed to periodicals. A beautiful copy of this ornithological work, with extremely bright plates. In the publisher's original morocco binding. Externally, very smart with light rubbing to the extremities and to the head and tail of spine. Front hinge is slightly strained but firm. Rear hinge is tender and may detach with further handling. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright. Occasional light scattered spots to pages and light offsetting from plates. Very Good. C W Webber; Alfred J Miller (illustrator). book.…

Second edition, second printing. Large 8vo, 5 chromolithograph plates (4 by Alfred Jacob Miller), 1 steel-engraved plate, numerous wood-engraved illustrations, original black cloth, spine lettered in gilt, covers panelled in blind. First published in 1851, that edition notable as the first American work to contain chromolithographic illustrations, this second Lippincott printing [of the second 1852 edition] printed "Miller pinx't" underneath the plates after Alfred Jacob Miller. This same printing features a black line border in the margins around the text Tyler, Ron, ed., Alfred Jacob Miller: Artist on the Oregon Trail, Fort Worth: Amon Carter Museum, p. 448. Howes W196. Skillfully re-backed with original spine laid down and gilt spine-lettering refreshed, light to moderate foxing to prelims, frontispiece (heavier on verso), and terminal leaves (few marginal foxmarks on plates), a very few leaves, with one or two short, closed marginal tears, otherwise a fine copy. "My cherished object in this undertaking is, to introduce within the general scope of Polite Literature, a popular Natural History: upon the production of which I have so brought to bear the latest discoveries of Science, in the application of mechanical forces to pictorial illustration, as to cheapen all their cost without any deterioration of artistic value; and bring the essential spirit of what have been heretofore as sealed books, Presentation copy, inscribed by the author to Nathaniel Hawthorne on the front free endpaper: "To Nathaniel Hawthorne / by the author / C. W. Webber" and inscribed by Hawthorne to his English friend Henry Arthur Bright: "Mr H. A. Bright, / from Nathl Hawthorne." Webber had published a favorable review of Mosses from an Old Manse in the American Whig Review (Sept. 1846), and Hawthorne praised The Hunter-Naturalist in the Boston Daily Advertiser (10 Dec. 1851), while privately expressing his misgivings: "I doubt whether the poor fellow succeeds, after all. His object is not definite enough for the public comprehension -- at any rate, he does not pursue it definitely. I fear he will find no niche to put himself into -- but I am glad that I have done this very little mite for him and his wife." (Hawthorne to E. P. Whipple, 7 Dec. 1851). Hawthorne had earlier in 1848 sent to Webber the manuscript of "Ethan Brand" writing him that it was: "wrenched and torn out of my miserable brainthe fragment of an idea, like a tooth ill-drawn, leaving the rest to torture me." Hawthorne's biographer Edwin Haviland Miller comments on Hawthorne's friendship with Bright: "Hawthorne formed close friendships during the English years with two men to whom he "much grieved to bid farewell" Henry A. Bright and, above all, Francis Bennoch. They were businessmen and literary enthusiasts of the kind the nineteenth century seemed to breed. Bright, a young man of twenty-two, came to Concord in 1852 with a letter of introduction from Longfellow. Emerson accompanied Bright to the Wayside, where Emerson talked too much and Hawthorne not at all, to the bewilderment of the English writer who had no way of knowing that both men behaved according to fixed patterns in their uncomfortable relationship. In Liverpool, Bright became acquainted with another Hawthorne, friendly, verbal, eager to enter sparring bouts. As Sophie observed, Bright "is one of Mr. Hawthorne's enthusiastic lovers and they fight in love and honor all the time." Such was Hawthorne's affection that he presented the manuscript of The Marble Faun to him. In Our Old Home Hawthorne recalled the association in an affectionate passage: "It would gratify my cherished remembrance of this dear friend, if I could manage, without offending him, or letting the public know it, to introduce his name upon my page. Bright was the illumination of my dusky little apartment, as often as he made his appearance there!" Bright reciprocated: "It is one of the best things in my life to have made a friend of you." pp. 419-420. Edwin Haviland Miller, Salem Is My Dwelling Place. A Life of Nathaniel Hawthorne.
