Rare Book Arts & Marketing Ephemera: Proof Book Number I- Copyright, 1913, by THE LUTHER BURBANK SOCIETY
Luther Burbank was born on March 7, 1849, on a farm near Lancaster, Massachusetts. He received little more than a high school education but showed interest in nature and mechanics at an early age. Among his early inventions were a steam whistle made from a willow stick and an old teakettle and a steam engine for his rowboat. His enthusiasm for nature was encouraged by his uncle, the head of a department of a Boston museum, and his uncle’s friend, Swiss-American naturalist Louis Agassiz.
