1724 1ed Lafitau Customs of American Savages Iroquois INDIANS Canada Illustrated

Joseph Lafitau's 'Moeurs des Sauvages Ameriquains', or 'Customs of the American Savages', is one of the best and most important accounts of Native American Indians from the 18th-century. The work gives substantial details on Indians in and near Canada, the languages they speak, tribal dances, ceremonies, and the attempts of Jesuit missionaries to reach and convert them. Lafitau himself was a Jesuit missionary, but he is most remembered for his important discoveries within the Iroquois Indian tribes.

According to Streeter,

"An extraordinary summation of seventeenth century knowledge of the life and society of the American Indian. Lafitau's comparison of Indian societies with ancient Asian societies was an attempt to demonstrate the Asian origin of the American Indian."

Description:
1878 EXQUISITE William Shakespeare Illustrated Charles Knight Romeo Juliet 2v

A beautiful 19th-century edition of the works of William Shakespeare!

In the mid-19th-century, Charles Knight published an illustrated edition of the works of Shakespeare, a set that proved to be very popular throughout the English-speaking world, into the late 1800s. It included all of the famous works one would expect to be in a collection of Shakespeare, but unlike other editions of the same era, this particular example features the impressive full-page engravings of character portraits.

This 1878 American edition was published in Philadelphia by Amies. An impressive example of Shakespeare.

1829 Botanic Garden by Maund BOTANICAL Flowers Botany Illustrated Gardens 2v

Benjamin Maund was a 19th-century British naturalist who, beginning in 1825, published one of the most important and desirable works on British flowers. 'The Botanic Garden' was a regularly printed periodical that illustrated the flower and plants found in British gardens, particularly the Royal Gardens.

According to Dunthorne in 'Great Flower Books', Maund's "Botanic Garden" is
"A delightful work, not only full of useful and practical information, but illustrated with most charming plates carefully engraved and colored."

These first two volumes of 'The Botanic Garden' includes nearly 150+ hand-colored illustrations of flowers, leaves, plants, and more!

Description:
1686 GREEK & ROMAN Military Dutch Netherlands Wars Elephants Woodcuts Paffenrode

Jan van Paffenrode was a 17th-century Dutch soldier who was much better known for his poems and writings on military tactics than his military service. After the successes of his poems and his translation portions of Ovid's 'Metamorphoses', Paffenrode wrote a treatise on Greek and Roman military at the onset of the Franco-Dutch War in in the 1670s. This work, "Greek and Roman Military Trade" compared ancient classical battle tactics to modern Dutch techniques.

This 1686 edition includes numerous engravings depicting gear and weaponry used in ancient battles – footwear, helmets, scepters. However, the illustration of the War Elephant is easily the most interesting of all of the engravings found in this work!
