1890106341890. Translated from the French by A. Estoclet. Illustrated by George Roux. New York: Cassell Publishing Company n.d. 1890. Original light blue cloth pictorially decorated in black. First American Edition also the first edition in English. Quoting from a contemporary review cited in T&M -- Like most of M. Jules Verne's books it is the story of a journey. Some acrobats wish to travel from California to their native France and having no money they determine to go in their caravan northward to Bering's Straits crossing on the ice and make their way through Siberia into Europe. M. Jules Verne's travellers are generally successful: in spite of robbers icebergs and the Russian police the bold Frenchmen triumphantly reach their goal. Pictured on the front cover is the troupe with their horse-drawn wagon climbing into the Sierras while the spine shows one of them fleeing a grizzly bear. This undated American edition CAESAR was published sometime in the autumn of 1890 probably late September; Sampson Low's London edition CESAR was not published until over a year later in November 1891. This copy is in light blue cloth; we have also had copies in olive green and in mint green no priority. It is a near-fine copy light foxing on the leaves within but the light-colored cloth is remarkably clean and bright and there is scarcely any wear. There is a Christmas 1890 ownership inscription on the front flyleaf. Taves & Michaluk V037; Myers 7. <br/><br/> hardcover books

1895106421895. With Illustrations. New York: R. F. Fenno & Company n.d. 1895. Original olive green cloth pictorially decorated in black and silver. First American Edition in cloth of this tale of buried treasure described as follows in a contemporary review cited in T&M: Captain Antifer's father had befriended an Egyptian prisoner at Jaff Jaffa Kamylk Pasha and many years after he received a mysterious document naming latitude 24 degrees 59 minutes north and saying that the longitude would follow later. It never did; but Antifer succeeded in discovering it and had a series of most exciting adventures in searching for the wealth which was to be found on the spot indicated. Antifer's efforts to find the islet's longitude complicated by treachery and demands of marriage take him to the Gulf of Oman the Gulf of Guinea and even north of Norway. After serialization in Boy's Own Fenno published a wrappered version of this tale in June 1895 the first edition in the English language; both Fenno and in England Sampson Low then published clothbound editions in November of that year -- precedence uncertain. This Fenno volume has a binding design very much like those of the American trade binding artist Margaret Armstrong and is profusely illustrated. This copy is in fine condition Christmas 1895 inscription. Taves & Michaluk V042; Myers 6. <br/><br/> hardcover books
