Fine edition When the pioneering naturalist Gilbert White (1720-93) wrote The Natural History of Selborne (1789), he created one of the greatest and influential natural history works, his detailed observations about birds and animals providing the cornerstones of modern ecology. This edition, beautifully bound and illustrated, has been modelled on the large quarto editions produced in the late 18th century: a fitting homage to this much-loved work.
