The Gentleman Farmer: Being an Attempt to Improve Agriculture by Subjecting it to the Test of Rational Principles - Cambridge Library Collection - Botany and Horticulture
Home, Lord Kames, Henry
The Scottish judge Lord Kames (1696–1782) was also keenly interested in agriculture, and published this influential book in 1776: reissued here is the 1779 second edition. This thoroughly practical work ends with a discussion of the 'imperfection of Scotch husbandry' and a proposal for 'a board for improving agriculture'.
