James Lothian (1817-1871): Practical hints on the culture and general
management of alpine or rock plants. To which is also appended a list of
alpines, ferns, marsh, and aquatic plants, etc., etc. Edinburgh: W. H.
Lizars.
I am keen to make contact with anyone who owns or has access to a copy
of this book, first published in 1845. A second issue (c. 1859-1861) can
be identified by signatures on the hand-coloured plates. In the original
1845 issue these are signed "Lizars sc." At least one copy is known of
the later issue, with the signature "Fr. Schenk 50 Geo. St. Edinr."
If you can assist please contact me at [log in to unmask]
Thank you.
