About This Item

Paris , Fournier, 1835. *** Première édition française, publiée la même année que l'édition originale américaine. Voyage d'un mois dans les territoires de chasse des Pawnies en 1832. Il débute à Fort Gibson, "un poste de notre extrême frontière de l'Ouet situé sur la Grande Rivière, près de son confluent avec l'Arkansas". Ce récit très vivant fait une large place à la description des tribus indiennes rencontrées. La traduction est de Mlle. A. Sobry. Le faux-titre porte: "Mélanges. Tome premier." Les deux autres volumes de ces "Miscellany", qui ne concernent pas l'Amérique, ont paru en anglais, mais n'ont jamais été publiés en français. Des rousseurs. *** In-8 de (4), 306, (1) pp. Broché, couverture imprimée. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - * First French edition, published the same year as the original American edition. A month-long trip to Pawnie hunting grounds in 1832. It begins at Fort Gibson, "a post on our extreme Ouet frontier situated on the Grande Rivière, near its confluence with the Arkansas". This lively account gives ample space to descriptions of the Indian tribes encountered. The translation is by Mlle. A. Sobry. The half-title reads: "Mélanges. Tome premier." The other two volumes of these "Miscellany", which do not concern America, appeared in English, but were never published in French. Some foxing. - -.

About Hugues de Latude

I specialize in antiquarian books : early printed books, incunabula, illustrated, science, medecine, natural history... I have been a bookseller since 1988 and I mostly go for books I have never seen.
