Mors supérieur du tome I en partie fendu, du tome III en queue et du tome VI sur les trois derniers caissons en queue. Feuillets inversés in fine de la table du tome IV. Malgré tout, ensemble satisfaisant, de bon aspect général. L'auteur ne se contente pas de donner une relation de son voyage personnel en Italie, mais il tend à réaliser une description complète et la plus exacte possible de l'Italie contemporaine, afin que son ouvrage soit un guide moderne et utile, en comparaison aux multiples voyages en Italie qui on été écrits ; et L'abbé Richard s'est en effet beaucoup documenté pour réaliser cette étude aussi bien politique, économique que culturelle. On y trouve des éléments tout à fait nouveaux, en dehors de l'histoire de l'Italie et des descriptions classiques des monuments et oeuvres d'art, comme la qualité de l'air, l'alimentation, les routes, les imprimeries, les courtisanes, les collections... Deux volumes entiers sont consacrés à Rome. L'ouvrage procède par villes et régions géographiques. Des tables de matières permettent aisément de retrouver des éléments particuliers de l'oeuvre. Une somme, si l'on considère que chaque volume contient plus ou moins 400 pages. Le volume 3 contient une chronologie des écoles de peintures et des peintres en Italie.

Presentation copy to Henry S Wellcome with the compliments of John W Forster. U.S. Secretary of State Government. Reproductions of maps used in 1903 border disputes with Britain showing the American claim to the land; effectively a cartographic history of Alaska. When the U.S. purchased Alaska from Russia in 1821 it inherited a dispute over the territory's border with British Columbia. The Klondike Gold Rush of 1897-98 exacerbated tensions until the 1903 Hay-Herbert Treaty under which the nations entered arbitration to resolve the dispute. The arbitration's conclusion favored the United States sparking Canadian frustration that Britain had not better defended its interests. This atlas presents official facsimiles of the maps presented by the U.S. in the arbitration process. 21 are facsimiles of historical maps from Russian French German British Canadian and American atlases dating between 1798 and 1863; many are depicted with facsimiles of title pages from the source atlases. The remaining four maps were produced in 1903 by the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey including one depicting the locations of Native American villages along the border. Quantity Available: 1.

178429268London: G. Nicol & T. Cadell 1784. Etched and engraved by C. Grignion after a drawing by Webber. Image size: 10 1/4 x 7 inches. Sheet size: 22 x 15 1/2 inches. In this attractive portrait a young muscular man dances what was then a sacred dance called Hula. In his right hand he holds a feather covered gourd. Virtually nude he wears only a bark cloth "malo" or loin cloth a coral necklace and dogtooth leggings. His body is tattooed in rhythmic patterns that flow down his arms and legs.<br/> <br/>"Cook's third voyage was organized to seek the Northwest Passage and to return the islander Omai to Tahiti. Officers of the crew included William Bligh James Burney James Colnett and George Vancouver. John Webber was appointed artist to the expedition. After calling at Kerguelen Island Tasmania New Zealand and the Cook Tonga and Society Islands the expedition sailed north and discovered Christmas Island and the Hawaiian Islands which Cook named the Sandwich Islands. Cook charted the American west coast from Northern California through the Bering Strait as far north as latitude 70 degrees 44 minutes before he was stopped by pack ice. He returned to Hawaii for the winter and was killed in an unhappy skirmish with the natives. Charles Clarke took command and after he died six months later the ships returned to England under John Gore. Despite hostilities with the United States and France the scientific nature of this expedition caused the various governments to exempt these vessels from capture. The voyage resulted in what Cook judged his most valuable discovery - the Hawaiian Islands" Hill. John Webber R.A. born in London of Swiss parents was the official artist on Cook's historic and final Pacific voyage. The drawings were the source for the engravings that illustrated Cook's "A Voyage to the Pacific" which was published in 1784. G. Nicol & T. Cadell unknown books
