English: Armorial bookplate (with ms. shelf-mark "T4") of Sir George Augustus William Shuckburgh-Evelyn, 6th Baronet (1751-1804), English politician (MP for Warwickshire 1780-1804), mathematician and astronomer. The lunar crater Shuckburgh is named after him. A Fellow of the Royal Society, he was the 1798 co-winner (with chemist Charles Hatchett, discoverer of niobium) of the Copley Medal. (Their researches were unrelated.) The book in question is Nicolas de Bonnefons. The French gardiner: instructing how to cultivate all sorts of fruit-trees, and herbs ... written originally in French [by Nicolas de Bonnefons], and now transplanted into English, by John Evelyn ... The third edition illustrated with sculptures. Whereunto is annexed, The English vineyard vindicated by John Rose [or rather, compiled by John Evelyn from material supplied by Rose] ... with a tract of the making and ordering of wines in France [signed: J. Evelyn]. London, Printed by S.S. for Benj. Tooke, 1672. |
