The Eleventh Edition. Newly Corrected, Enlarged, and adorned with many Excellent Additions, as may appear by this Mark. London: Printed for George Sawbridge, at the Sign of the Bible Ludgate-Hill, 1683. 4to., (7 4/8 x 5 4/8 inches). 19th-century half green calf, marbled paper boards (a bit scuffed). "For the social historian, or the re-enactor, Gervase Markham's numerous works are indispensable guides to the practicalities of Renaissance life" (Matthew Steggle) First published in 1615. Markham lived a long a varied and interesting life, which is reflected in the breadth of subjects that he wrote about. Firstly he was a retainer of the earl of Rutland at Belvoir Castle, then he served in the army in Ireland, by 1593 he was settled in London. It was here that he wrote poetry that declared his allegiance to the Earl of Essex and became close to the Earl of Southampton, prompting some to suggest that he may be the Rival Poet of Shakespeare's Sonnets. Here he also wrote the first of many books of a practical nature, A Discource of Horsmanshippe, which was followed by another book on horses Cavelarice (1607). "Partly through his own productivity, and partly through the sharp practice of publishers repeatedly reissuing his work in different forms, it came to pass that five different books on the subject of horses, all of them by Markham, and some of them repeating one another's material, were on the market simultaneously. On 14 July 1617 Markham was forced to sign an unprecedented agreement with the Stationers' Company: I do promise hereafter never to write any more book or books to be printed of the deseases or Cures of any Cattle, as Horse, Oxe, Cowe, Sheepe, Swine, Goates etc. (Poynter, 23). Instead, Markham wrote Hobson's Horse-Load of Epistles (1617), a book of sample letters ready to be adapted to the sender's own particular circumstances. Next he turned to the subject of wildfowling, producing Hunger's Prevention (1621), a practical guide to the art of hunting birds" (Matthew Steggle for DNB).".

Markham, the most prolific English writer on agriculture and farming in the first half of the seventeenth century, adapts herein a work by Charles Estienne (Charles Stevens). "It was first published in Latin as the Praedium Rusticum in 1554. Estienne himself translated it into French and Liebault brought it out shortly after Estienne's death in 1564. Surflet's first English translation appeared in 1600." [Hunt] This first Markham edition, based on the Surflet translation, is noted for its additions, as well as its rarity. Fussell refers to this adapation of Estienne's work as being among Markham's most important works on farming. The text on the verso of the title, under the caption "The Contents," gives an accurate description of the work: "There is contained in this last Edition, whatsoever can be required for the building, or good ordering, of a Husbandmans House, or Countrey Farme; as namely, to foresee the changes and alterations of Times; to know the motions, and powers, of the Sunne and Moone, upon the things about which Husbandry is occupied: as to cure the sicke labouring Man; to cure Beasts and flying Fowles of all sorts; to dresse, plant, or make Gardens, as well as for the Kitchin, and Physicke use, as also in Quarters." The description continues on to touch a variety of subjects, including the planting and care of trees, the keeping of bees, the making of wine and beer, and the distilling of liquor, as well as hunting and hawking. The illustrations include several full-page woodcut plans for knot gardens (pp.257-275), a garden labyrinth (p.276), a tobacco plant (p.217), plus large woodcuts of a cow (p.99) and horse (p.138) with references to various ailments, among several others images. The present example is a complete copy of a scarce book, often found defective. Arents 123. Bitting, pp.146-147. ESTC S121357. Fussell, p.28. Goldsmiths 451. Hunt 202. Kress 353. McDonald, p.90.
