With weekly planners and gardening tips from William Cobbett's English Gardener 1827. Designed and with illustrations throughout by Edward Bawden. A UK first edition, first impression. No wrapper as issued. The book is tight. There are no previous ownership inscriptions. The boards are gently soiled and show light toning at the margins. The upper corners are gently bruised. and there is a touch of trivial bruising to the spine ends. The pages are very clean - no markings in the text. The closed page edges are sound - the top edge is toned. There are no loose or dog-eared pages. The binding is tight, the hinges are solid. Uncommon. A very nice copy.
