Fulton notes: "Dibdin long ago pointed out that the first bookseller's catalogue of any bibliographical pretension was issued at London in 1658 by the well-informed dealer William London from Newcastle-on-Tyne.... His scholarly introduction occupies forty-nine pages, arranged under various subject headings such as divinity, history, physick, chymistry, etc. The books themselves are again grouped in categories: divinity, history, and a most interesting section on physick and chyrurgery. Following many of the titles London gives an annotation briefly describing the contents of the book.." Besterman notes that it is "elaborately classified and full, but not as detailed and accurate as might have been wished" while nevertheless observing that with its publication "English national bibliography entered on a road which leads direct to the present time". In all, approximately 400 books are listed, with the catalogue also including London's interesting "Introduction to the use of Books" which Growoll & Eames considered "not unworthy to be ranked with the Bishop of Durham's 'Philobiblon' "., Gregg Press Ltd, London, 1965 reprint of the 1658 second issue and the 1658 and 1660 supplementary Catalogues, Allen & Unwin, 2012. Hardback. New. <i>Latin for Gardeners</i> is an informative, entertaining and beautifully illustrated unraveling of the mysteries of botanical Latin. Over 3000 Latin names are listed alphabetically, showing how botanical Latin can reveal where a plant originally comes from (and thus its preferred growing conditions), along with such properties as its shape, form, colour, taste and smell. Each name is clearly defined and accompanied by a pronunciation guide, and the pages are filled with attractive botanical illustrations...Fascinating feature spreads retell the adventures of important plant hunters such as Sir Jospeh Banks and Alexander von Humboldt, and explain how their discoveries affect the way our gardens look today. Individual plants are also profiled throughout, showing how their names can illuminate their hidden histories...Aided by this book, every gardener, and their garden, will benefit from uncovering the wealth of information that lies within the remarkable world of Latin binomials.
