MacMillan, New York, 1882. First Edition. Hardcover (Half Cloth). Fair Condition/No Dust Jacket. NORDENSKIOLD, A.E. The Voyage of the Vega Round Asia and Europe, New York: Macmillan, 1882. Quarto, first U.S. edition, pp. xxvi, 756, half black cloth over marbled boards, steel engravings, 10 folding linen maps. Chronicles the first-ever complete crossing of the Northeast Passage in 1879, translated from the Swedish by Alexander Leslie.

The maps are reproductions of much older work as well as original cartography, such as N. Selander's "The North Coast of the Old World" and G. Bove's "Sketch Map of Taimur Sound." This is the first USA edition. Size: Octavo (standard book size). Binding is tight, covers and spine fully intact.… Read More
