Description

Rev. John Marius Wilson's The Rural Cyclopedia Or A General Dictionary of Agriculture, And of the Arts, Sciences, Instruments and Practice, Necessary to the Farmer, Stockfarmer, Gardener, Forester, Landsteward, Farrier & C. 1861.

It presents to farmers a digest of all agricultural literature; and, at the same time, offers to gardeners, foresters, land-stewards, and other well informed classes of the rural community, a larger amount of rich and well timed information that can be found in any one of the numerous works which have been expressly written for their benefit (preface).
