Synopsis "The Cleveland Herbal, Botanical, and Horticultural Collection: A Descriptive Bibliography of Pre-1830 Works From the Libraries of the Holden. And the Garden Center of Greater Cleveland (in English)"

More than 970 rare books, dating from 1479 to 1830 and covering such categories as gardening, herbals, botanical books and landscape architecture are catalogued in this bibliography. The oldest book featured is a 1479 edition by Serapion the Younger, and among the rarest is ""Flore D'Oware et Benin"" (1803) of which only four other copies are known to exist. Also catalogued are original manuscripts and artwork, some of which are reproduced in the book. Many of the detailed descriptions in this study are made available for the first time to scholars, artists, book collectors, historians of medicine, botany, and horticulture, as well as historians of books and printing.
