Description:
Edinburgh, 1823; Circa 1823 hand colored copper engraving of the South American Capybara (Hydrochaerus capibara. Erxleben), world’s largest rodent, which reaches a mature size of up to four feet in length and three in girth and inhabits the banks of lakes and rivers, where it is distinguished for the webbed feet which make it an agile swimmer, and for its remarkable ability to submerge itself for long periods of time without resurfacing. Drawn by Alexander Mosses (1793-1837), who with no formal training developed into an acknowledged master draughtsman and painter of nature scenes, genre pieces, and portraiture, his subjects ranging from members of the privileged classes to common people. His portrait of prominent physician John Rutter hangs in the Royal Institution, Liverpoole, and his work is in the permanent collections of both the Walker Art Gallery and the National Galleries Of Scotland. Engraved by William Home Lizars (1788-1859), renowned not only for his art, but for being instrumental in…

Philadelphia: Chilton. VG+/VG+. 1970. 1st Edition. Hardcover; 1st Printing. 1st edition/1st printing. SIGNED by author on half-title page. Parts of this book were originally issued under the name of "The Earth's Shifting Crust" in 1958. The author subsequently substantially changed his views on the geological mechanisms causing pole shifts and published this book in 1970, almost totally revising his theory. This 1970 book served, to a great extent, as the basis for the book by Alan Eckert called "The Hab Theory." Mr. Hapgood also wrote "Maps Of The Ancient Sea Kings." The VG++ book is clean, straight, tight and has no handwriting in it other than the author's signature; it has a few faint, small spots to the page edges and some light edgewear to the lower binding edges, plus the back board is very slightly bowed. The VG++ dustjacket is price intact, bright, clean and crisp; it has a small closed edge tear upper front near the spine with a very faint associated small wrinkle, a few small, faint foxing spots to the back panel, and a trace of edgewear. Scarce book, and particularly so signed by the author. ; Signed by Author .

1755 Buffon DOGS Natural History ANIMALS 52 Illustrated PIGS Goats Sheep Rams"Virtually all the well-known writers of the Enlightenment were 'Buffonians'"
― Ernst Mayer
The monumental work by Comte de Buffon, "Histoire Naturelle," was fascinating 18th-century collection of articles and encyclopedia entries on material sciences, physics, chemistry, technology, as well as the history of animals. Buffon wrote the volumes with the intent of addressing all of natural history, but after realizing the grandeur of the work, it focuses only minerals, birds, and quadrupeds.
This fifth volume includes history of hooved animals – sheep, goats, rams, and pigs, as well as a description of dogs. While each volume of this set is illustrated, this particular tome includes over fifty full-page engravings.

[The students whose names appear on the dissertations were not necessarily their authors; it was their function to present the dissertation and defend it in public debate, but the responsibility for the content of the dissertation was largely that of the professor, in this case Linnaeus. The fact that Linnaeus cited the Amoenitates as the place of publication for plant names he credited to himself indicates that he was generally the principal author of the work.
