Hi! You're looking at a SUPERB and UNREAD condition book which is VERY RARE, hard to find and OUT OF PRINT and a classic history and scientific study of the English Elm Tree written by R. H. RICHENS--the book is a STATED FIRST EDITION and an OVERSIZED volume and HARDCOVER with the ORIGINAL DUSTJACKET published in Great Britain and is NOT a remainder copy. This book also includes an article on the American Elm tree (Ulmus crassifolia) from the 1992 publication "Systematic Botany" and titled "Geographic Distribution of Allozyme Variation in Ulmus crassifolia written by S. L. SHERMAN-BROYLES, S. B. BROYLES and J. L. HAMRICK. This book is in SUPERB and UNREAD condition and the book itself has very slight dustwear / foxing on the upper page edge and a couple of very slight scuffs on the lower page edge but NO other significant imperfections; the dustjacket has a tiny ding on the lower right edge of the back cover and just slight shelfwear but NO other significant flaws!  The book is titled Elm and it was written R. H. RICHENS; it was published by Cambridge University Press in the United Kingdom in 1983 and is a STATED 1st EDITION copy.

The Elm, one of the three principal landscape trees of England, differs from the others in its complex variability and its intricate relationship with human settlement. Originally published in 1983, this classic book covers all its aspects, such as its history and its place in English literature and the visual arts.

A fantastic find, and a beautiful copy of this book!
