12mo, pp. (xii), 161, (7) advertisements, folding engraved frontispiece of various types of plough. Title within double-ruled border. Contemporary mottled sheep, rebacked and endpapers replaced at an early date. Paper a little browned (as in the other copy that I have handled) and spotting on the rear endpapers. Bold signature of Thomas Cotton, 1709, on front fly-leaf. FIRST EDITION, first issue. Meager?s third book (his first two were on gardening and fruit crops) is principally on methods of improving the soil. It ?was considered at the time a work of first-class merit? (McDonald). He supplied what had been omitted by others, much of which had been borrowed from earlier writers. ?This was sound logic, and Meager seems to have carried these advanced ideas right through his book in a manner which commands respect for the man and his methods? (ibid). He discusses different types of land and methods of fertilising it, and deals extensively with ploughing and types of plough. He was an advocate for planting all waste land with trees for posterity ? merit indeed! This was the only edition. Wing M1573A (M1573 is a reissue with a different imprint for a bookseller in Cornwall). McDonald, Agricultural Writers, includes Meager?s book among the early ?examples of excellence? (and not just in the bibliographical list), pp. 148?151. Fussell, The Old English Farming Books, pp. 77?79, describes it as ?a useful general work which Donaldson once again estimates highly.? Donaldson (Agricultural Biography, 1854), said of it that ?Meager?s book must be reckoned a very considerable advance in the progress of agriculture.?.

Disbound. Zustand: FAIR. Sixth edition. 7 1/4" x 5 1/2" quarto. 188 pages. Removed with two cords. Paper loss on first seven leaves (half the leaf or more), including title-page, dedication, preface, and table of contents for the first book. Lightly-tanned throughout with minor foxing. Text quite readable. Edges neatly trimmed, text is askew but not cut off. Excellent diagram of fish ponds (p. 183). (ESTC S120836) (Pollard & Redgrave, 17397). Gervase Markham (1568?-1637) was the most prolific writer of practical manuals in the first half of the seventeenth century. He wrote on various subjects including veterinary medicine, husbandry, domestic economy, housewifery, and even military training. His specialty, however, was horsemanship. In fact, he had so many books on horsemanship, that he was forced to sign an agreement with the Stationers' Company to write no more of the subject. (ODNB) This rare 1631 edition was printed by Anne Griffin, one of the foremost widow printers of the era (Valerie Wayne, Women's Labour and the History of the Book, 57). The book contains, as the characteristically prolix title suggests, directions for maintaining, treating, and selecting a variety of domestic and wild animals. Also includes a section on fishing and fish ponds with accompanying diagram. This is a fascinating work on early modern husbandry practices.
