Erstausgabe
Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Edition. First edition (xvii, 502; index), one of two collections published by the Society. Tall octavo in three-quarter red leather over cloth, gilt titles, five raised bands, t.e.g. Two full-page engraved b&w illustrations (frontispiece bust of Ray; Dewlands, Ray's house), foxed and stained. John Ray (1627- 1705) published a number of works on natural history but is best known for his Historia Plantarum in which he advanced a method of classification of plants according to observed likenesses and differences rather than classifying plants according to fanciful notions of the general way of things. Most of these letters (some of which are in Latin and defeat Miss Porter's heroic efforts to teach me that language) date from 1659- 1705; several are those written by Margaret Ray immediately subsequent to Ray's death. A trifle worn and rubbed around the edges, engravings foxed as noted. Still, quite a nice copy of a scarce collection of Ray's correspondence.

First edition, published by the Ray Society, of this collection of letters to and from the English clergyman-naturalist John Ray (1627-1705). Ray published important works on botany, zoology, ornithology and natural theology.

Ove Hagelin is a Swedish antiquarian bookseller and was an important source for Brusewitz's acquisitions.

London, The Ray Society, 1848. xvi, 502 pp.; engraved portrait of John Ray; one engraved plate. Original blind-stamped cloth with gilt title on the spine and gilt vignette on the front board. = An excellent copy of the original edition. Edited by E. Lankester. A common book, but this copy is exceptional: Only some light shelf wear, and the second engraved plate foxed (often, all is foxed). Otherwise impeccable.
