177969261Dublin: Printed for S. Price et al 1779. First Edition. Hardcover. Good. Having served in a Massachusetts regiment during the French and Indian Wars Carver was sent in 1766 by Robert Rogers then governor of Mackinac to map the main rivers of Wisconsin and Minnesota in preparation for an expedition to search for an overland Northwest Passage. He traveled the Fox-Wisconsin route then up the Mississipii and Minnesota rivers to a point west of the Falls of St. Anthony where he wintered with the Sioux Indians. In 1767 he joined the party sent by Rogers to find a route to the Pacific. They traveled as far as Grand Portage on Lake Superior when they were forced to turn back for lack of supplies. This account based on his journal includes vivid descriptions of the Wisconsin and Minnesota territories Indian life and customs and a short treatise on tobacco. It was tremendously popular in both America and Europe and is thought to be the first work to mention a large mountain range to the west presumably the Rocky Mountains. Two copper plates. Octavo.

Keigu also wrote several standard works on materia medica and left many sketch books and scrolls which entered the Kyoto rare book trade in 1932; some of these were published only in the 1980s. All of his sketch books and scrolls offered valuable and unique information regarding native plants and animals as well as those that had been introduced into Japan.
