H5B. Nadkarni, K.M, Indian Plants and Drugs, 1908, 1st edition, 2nd thousand, Norton & Co. 1910, Cr8vo, red cloth with gilt titles to spine and front board, spine with gilt rules and decorations, 6 + 450pp including index + 21pp of additional vernacular index + 10pp advertisements; an excellent and fairly comprehensive list of Indian plants and drug, their medical properties and uses within traditional medicine. This pioneering study was later expanded by both the author and his son, which resulted in a multi volume work which has become the standard work on Ayurveda or traditional Indian medicine. A few minor marks to boards, very light bumping to corners, slight creasing to spine ends, light foxing to end papers and a couple of leaves, tiny chips to a few early margins, light spotting to edges of text block, minor spots to the odd margin, text tight and largely clean throughout, a near very good copy of a scarce early issue with additional material over the first printing £45
