1759 AD. A printed map of Ireland designed by R.W. Seale with the legend A Map of the Kingdom of Ireland from ye latest & best Observations. For Mr. Tindal's Continuation of Mr. Rapin's History; mounted in an unglazed frame. 580 grams, 55 x 45cm (21 1/2 x 17 1/2"). Ex Walter Steinberg collection; acquired London art market, 1960s-1970s. The Reverend Nicolas Tindal (1687-27 June 1774) was the translator and continuer of the History of England by Paul de Rapin, covering the period from the reigns of James II to George II. The Continuation was published in 1759 AD in three volumes and Tindal was rewarded with a gold medal by Frederick, Prince of Wales, to whom he had decicated the second volume of the work. Walter Steinberg has been a well-known figure at fairs, sales and events for many years. Born in 1922 in Philadelphia, Walter has had a life-long passion for collecting. A long-time resident in London, he has now retired to New York and decided that the time has come to pass on the antiquities and coins he has collected over his lifetime. Walter acquired coins and artefacts that interested him, so his collection, although containing many lovely examples, also contains many affordable specimens. Much of the material has been unavailable to the market for 30 to 50 years. Walter hopes that the items he collected will now find new homes with the next generation of collectors. [No Reserve] Fine condition, small tear to one crease.

Robert Desmond Meikle was born on 18th May, 1923, in Newtownards, County Down, N.Ireland. His childhood in Ireland and his mother's love of nature fostered an early enthusiasm for botany. Known by his second name, Desmond, his formal education began early at the Royal Belfast Academy and led eventually to Trinity College, Dublin, where he gained 1st class honours in his chosen subject, law, and distinguished himself in the LlB examination. Throughout his University studies his obvious love for and knowledge of plants was encouraged by famous botanists of that era and with them he embarked upon plant recording in County Fermanagh; this led eventually to the recent publication (by others) of the Flora of County Fermanagh based upon the work done nearly 60 years previously. Desmond's future was not to be in the field of law despite a visit to London for an interview with the Administrative Civil Service. This was followed by a fortuitous visit to Kew Botanical Gardens, where he had many contacts gained from his interest in plants, and where he was offered a place in the Herbarium, which he accepted, and which changed his life-plan for ever. In time he was appointed to the Africa department and in 1949 went to Nigeria for a Medicinal Plants Survey. Returning in 1950 he was promoted to take charge of the European and Middle Eastern department of the Herbarium which gave him a good grounding for his next appointment. The government of the time was committed to the production of a Flora of Cyprus and Desmond accepted the monumental task of compiling a detailed account of the unique flora of this island. This occupied him for the next thirty years when the outstanding 2-volume Flora was published. His work and travels in that country made a lasting impression and he came to love both Cyprus and the Cypriots despite having worked there in a very difficult period of the 1960's political upheavals. Meanwhile he was appointed editor of the Kew series of Handbooks and author of two of the volumes. He was a council member of the Linnaean Society and also of the Botanical Society of the British Isles whilst holding a variety of offices in global scientific organisations which led to travels all over the world. In 1982 he was a recipient of the Kew Medal which is inscribed "For Merit" given to those deserving of special honour and in June 1983 was awarded O.B.E. in the Queen's Birthday Honours. He retired from Kew after 37 years of distinguished service to botany and a career which made him renowned throughout the world. His lifelong attachment and respect for books is reflected in the diverse array of his life-long collection. We are grateful to Jeanne Webb for this biography. Barton, Richard.
