142. Lippay János: Gyümölczös kert

Beczben, 1667. Cosmerovius Máté. (8)+302+(2)p. First four leaves replaced by copies.
It is a stand-alone work, a sequel to „Posoni Kert”, published three years earlier. The author's work is "an almost unparalleled repository of contemporary scientific knowledge and practical experience, a classic of Hungarian horticultural literature". Four engravings are known for the this edition, which are so rare that even the facsimile edition is based on several copies. Our copy does not include the illustrations.
Modern half leather.
