2281665Alfred A. Knopf / The Plimpton Press 1925. Limited Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Very Good. Limited edition #158 of 750 copies. All volumes include slipcases. All books are near fine slipcases are good to very good. A piece of the Volume X slipcase spine has come loose but is included and a couple other slipcases have minor splits along seams. For reasons that are unclear the first two slipcases though numbered the same as the rest are of a different design it is possible the labels were removed from the original slipcases and replacements were made but there is no evidence of this that we can see. With a small bit of restoration this could be a beautiful set. 1925 Hard Cover. Twelve hardcover volumes in publisher's slipcases with limitation numbers handwritten on spine of each slipcase. Black cloth spines over cream cloth boards gilt titles and decorations. Set printed and bound by The Plimpton Press of Norwood Mass. on all rag water marked paper made by the Worthy Paper Co. Association. Best known for his American Civil War novel The Red Badge of Courage 1895 Stephen Crane was a major figure in the fields of Realism Naturalism and Impressionism most notably his first novel Maggie: A Girl of the Streets which many consider the first American Naturalist novel. This set includes introductions by various authors written expressly for this edition some quite prominent e.g. Willa Cather; H.L. Mencken Sherwood Anderson. Alfred A.

Arctic Biblio 10530 Hill 1055 Howgego II L52. George Francis Lyon 1795-1832 was a British naval officer and explorer of the Arctic and Africa. He served in the Mediterranean during the Napoleon wars and later assigned to an expedition in North Africa with Joseph Ritchie to explore the Niger river area. He was selected by William Edward Parry to command the Hecla in 1821-1823 for an expedition to the Northern coast of Hudson Bay to find the Northwest Passage. He wrote about this journey in "The Private Journal of Captain G. F. Lyon". He was one of the "Barrow Boys" Captains that were favored by Sir John Barrow 1764-1848 Secretary to the Admialty to command Arctic exploration.From Howgego II " In 1824 the Admiralty sent Lyon back to the Arctic in command of the Griper . to penetrate the Hecla and Fury Strait to the north of the Melville Peninsula and to attempt to proceed along the continental coast to connect with the navigable sea reported by John Franklin to the east of the Coppermine River." This was only one of the four expeditions sent to the Arctic in the same year to search of the Northwest Passage. A major effort that failed to find the ice free passage but gained significant experience and information on the Arctic. During the voyage Lyon experienced heavy ice and foul weather that caused damage to the ship and forced him to retreat. John Barrow was upset that Lyon did not achieve his mission to connect with Franklin and was never offered another command by the Admiralty again. This book is Lyon's account of the 1824 voyage and reasons why the voyage was not successful.William Edward Parry Hooper 1829-1926 appears to have been named after the famous Arctic explorer and became a clerk in the Admiralty. The bookplate motto of "in memoria retinere" means to "keep in mind"Steve Fossett 1944-2007 was a successful commodities trader and an adventurer that set world records in balloons sailboats gliders and unique powered aircraft. In the 1980's Fossett began developing a library collection of over 2000 books on adventure and exploration. His collection included significant and authoritative accounts of aeronautics polar Asia Australasia circumnavigation's mountaineering and others. In 2007 Fossett disappeared on a solo flight in a light aircraft over the eastern Sierra Mountains along the California and Nevada border. After an extensive search the wreckage was found by hikers a year later along the rugged Mt. Ritter range in the Ansel Adams Wilderness in Madera County about 10 miles east of Yosemite National Park.
