If you can't gave the real thing, this is the next best. Cream laid paper. Etching to title page. Almost a facsimile of the extracts from Gerard's Historie of Plants, although the typography is updated.
From a rare and vast storehouse of botanical information — beautiful, royalty-free illustrations of fruits, vegetables, herbs, and garden flowers. Ideal for craftwork as well as for use in gardening books, cookbooks and general-interest publications, these handsome illustrations will also delight herbal enthusiasts. 214 black-and-white illustrations.
The 1633 edition revised and enlarged by Thomas Johnson. Containing almost 2,850 plant descriptions and 2,705 superb illustrations, Gerard’s Herbal is a monumental work, the book all modern English herbals are derived from, and the one herbal every serious enthusiast should have in its entirety.
