Harding et al, 1808. 8vo, half calf over marbled boards; pp. [7], 4-277, [1]; 4 tinted plates (two folding, one double-page), 3 eng. plates. Second edition. William Pontey was head gardener to the Grimstons at Kilnwick and then ''Planter and Forest Pruner'' to the ''Late and Present Duke of Bedford''. He encouraged improvement in the practices of replanting of trees and forest management on the English estates. with The Secretary of the Board. General View of the Agriculture of Lincolnshire drawn up for the consideration of the Board of Agriculture and Internal Improvement. Printed for Sherwood, Neely, and Jones, Paternoster-Row, 1813. 8vo, org. cloth-backed boards; pp. [i-v], vi-vii, [1 (blank)], 490 [498], [6]; 3 hand-coloured folding maps, 3 folding plans and views, 7 plates, numerous letterpress tables and figures to text; provenance: Robert Southey (Poet Laureate, his owner's inscription to foot of title). Second edition. It is perhaps a delightful historical irony that Southey's name would be more permanently linked with those of the publishers a mere four years later, when their publication of Southey's Wat Tyler mired him and the Tory government in scandal.. Pruner generally very good, though lightly foxed throughout. General View upper board detached but present, some age-toning but otherwise generally clean internally.
