Abstract

The article considers the history of technology by focusing on the creation of the 1817-1820 color printed book "American Medical Botany," by Jacob Bigelow, which evolved from using hand-coloring to aquatinting of the illustrated prints. Topics considered include women's work as colorists, serialized publications, and the evolving meaning of technology in the 19th century.
