pp. x, 365, (7)[Publisher's catalogue] + Frontis, full page drawings and folding map of the Fiji Archipelago. Inked ownership. First signature slightly dampstained. Slight age staining. 8vo. Original full cloth binding, worn, stained and spotted. Hardbound. Early American edition of a classic on life in the South Pacific. Constance Frederica 'Eka' Gordon-Cumming (1837-1924) was a travel writer and painter. She was born in Scotland, the 12th child of a wealthy family. She taught herself how to paint, and had help from artists visiting her home, including one of Queen Victoria's favorite painters, Sir Edwin Landseer. After spending a year in India in 1867, she became interested in travel. Gordon-Cumming was a prolific travel writer and landscape painter who traveled the world, mostly in Asia and the Pacific. She painted over a thousand watercolors. Miss Gordon-Cumming received much criticism from male writers of the era, perhaps because she did not fit in the traditional Victorian role of women, as she often traveled alone and unaided. . **PRICE JUST REDUCED!
