This book contains 14 large but delicate engravings which depict an Ostritch, an Eagle, and some Monkeys, amongst others. Each is accompanied by drawings of early anatomical dissections. It was once owned by an MP and is housed in a beautiful 19th Century full calf binding. It is sadly lacking the frontispiece but is otherwise complete of plates and text.
