Description:
Halifax: Printed by Abraham Hodge, 1799. First Edition First Printing . Hardcover. Good. 8vo. 502, (18) pages. Hardcover bound in original full leather. The binding is worn and scuffed but sound. Some of the scuffing on the binding has deep gouges, especially on the rear cover where a strip of leather is missing along the fore edge. Hinges are secure, but there is a strip of old cloth book tape on the front inner hinge, and some of the last few leaves of the index are stuck together at the gutter. This does not really affect the text but there might have been some adhesive applied there. Corners bumped. Contains the front and rear blank flyleaves. There is an early ink signature on the front pastedown which appears to be "L. Silliman" (possibly Levi Silliman? 1797-1867. He was the second Bishop of the Protestant Episcopal Church in North Carolina). "L. Silliman" also is written in light pencil on the rear pastedown, next to an early ink notation of "Haywood." There also a couple of bolder early 20th… Read More

Paris, Ernest Flammarion, [ 1906]. . Erste Ausgabe in einem schönen, gepflegten Exempar. (Rückenprägung des Buchbinders "1907").- Bericht der ersten ausführlichen Erfoschung von Graham Land. Die erste Antarktis-Reise des französischen Wissenschaftlers und Polarforschers Jean-Baptiste Charcot (1867-1936) war ursprünglich zur Rettung der schwedischen Antarktis-Expedition von Otto Nordenskjöld gedacht, die jedoch von einem argentinischen Schiff gerettet wurde. So erforschte und kartierte Charcot mit seinen Leuten die Westküste des Graham-Landes (Antarktis). Von Feuerland aus erreichte er die Brabant- und Anvers-Inseln, entdeckte später auf der Wiencke-Insel einen der seltenen natürlichen Häfen in der Antarktis (Port Lockroy) und erforschte die Biscoe-Insel (Salentiny S. 81f). Am Schluß der Reise hatte die Expedition eine gewaltige Menge wissenschaftlicher Erkenntnisse gesammelt, die schließlich 16 Bände füllten. Zur Forschungsreise gehörten u.a.: Joseph Jean Justine Rey (1873-1930),… Read More
