About This Item

Title page with small owner's stamp of "Mr [Henri] Milne Edwards," the noted 19th Century zoologist (1800-1885). All page edges uncut. A little light foxing and the old endpapers are lightly soiled.

Provenance: Henri Milne Edwards, Library of Henry and Virginia Walton Harry and Virginia Walton were lifelong residents of Covington, Virginia, a small town in the Allegheny Mountains. Harry was a graduate of Lynchburg College, and Virginia was a graduate of the Lynchburg General School of Nursing. Although largely unknown to the general public, the Waltons' reputation as collectors was widely respected in bibliophile and academic circles, and items from their collection were exhibited at numerous colleges, universities and art centers. After their deaths, the original Walton collection was the subject of a series of very successful auctions in New York and London. John Field was an expert leather bookbinder associated with W.J. Barrow Restoration Shop (Richmond, VA).
