This Tiny Folio presents, in modern taxonomic order, all 277 of the
hand-coloured plates from François-André Michaux’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 Redouté 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 Nuttall’s
pioneering work came to be.
