FIRST EDITION of Séguier's botanical bibliography in Latin.  The work is divided into three sections on flora, medical botany, and horticulture. "The coverage of the book is excellent, due to the fact that Séguier saw an unusual number of libraries on his European tour. He furthermore consulted as many catalogues of private libraries as possible. With the major Paris and London libraries accounted for, with the information obtained from Gronovious in Holland, and with his careful scanning of the literature, Séguier achieved a very high degree of coverage" (Stafleu & Cowan 11.624).
