In conjunction with a special program by Mann Library and the Cornell Department of Horticulture, Mark Catesby's original work "The natural history of Carolina, Florida, and the Bahama Islands" will be on display in the Reading Room of the Division of Rare and Manuscript Collections. This rare 2-volume work, published as individual folios between 1731 and 1743, is part of the History of Science collection at RMC.
