Description

Located in San Marino, the Library's collection of rare books and manuscripts in the fields of British and American history and literature is nothing short of extraordinary. The Library has on display some of the finest rare books and manuscripts of Anglo-American civilization. Among the treasures for research and exhibition are the Ellesmere manuscript of Chaucer's Canterbury Tales, a Gutenberg Bible on vellum, the double-elephant folio edition of Audubon's Birds of America, and a world-class collection of the early editions of Shakespeare's works. The art collection includes Gainsborough's Blue Boy and Lawrence's Pinkie. The Botanical Gardens are an ever-changing exhibition of color and a constant delight, covering 120 acres.
