| book description |

This Tiny Folio presents, in modern taxonomic order, all 277 of the hand-coloured plates from FranÃ§ois-AndrÃ© Michauxâ€™s classic North American Sylva, as well as the supplemental volumes by Thomas Nuttall. These masterworks of 19th-century botanical illustration - by such artists as Pierre-Joseph RedoutÃ© and Pancrace Bessa - represent the leaves, fruit, and flowers of American trees with wonderful grace and clarity. Published in cooperation with the New York Botanical Garden, The Trees of North America includes a preface and introduction describing how Michaux and Nuttallâ€™s pioneering work came to be.
