In-4 (173 x 230 mm), broché, couverture de papier d'attente paille (rel. postérieure), 35 p. et [-36], 45, (1) p. de privilège, 2 pages de titre comprises dans la pagination. Édition originale in-4° de librairie en premier tirage, rare, du traité historique signé à Bréda le 31 juillet 1667. Publiée par les "imprimeurs & libraires ordinaires du Roy", avec privilège et vignettes de titre aux armes royales. Les deux parties possèdent une page de titre particulière, sous pagination continue. Le traité de Bréda, signé par l’Angleterre, la République des Provinces-Unies, la France et le Danemark, mettait un terme à la Deuxième Guerre anglo-néerlandaise (1665-1667), alors que les armées de Louis XIV commençaient à envahir les Pays-Bas espagnols. Les Néerlandais abandonnèrent aux Anglais les territoires de la Nouvelle Amsterdam (New York) contre les fabriques de sucre du Suriname et l'île de Run dans les Moluques, monopole de la noix muscade (!). Par ailleurs, l'Angleterre rendait l'Acadie à la France en échange d'Antigua, de Montserrat et de la partie anglaise de Saint-Christophe. (Dionne, 'Inventaire chronologique (...) Québec et Nouvelle France', II, n°177 et 223. Sabin, n°96526). Auréoles claires, quelques piqûres éparses. Bon exemplaire.

Milano, 1952, stralcio con copertina posticcia muta, pp. 143/154 con fotografie, tavole fotografiche ed una cartina. - !! ATTENZIONE !!: Con il termine estratto (o stralcio) intendiamo riferirci ad un fascicolo contenente un articolo di rivista, sia che esso sia stato stampato a parte utilizzando la stessa composizione sia che provenga direttamente da una rivista. Le pagine sono indicate come "da/a", ad esempio: 229/231 significa che il testo è composto da tre pagine. Quando la rivista di provenienza non viene indicata é perchè ci è sconosciuta. - !! ATTENTION !!: : NOT A BOOK : “estratto” or “stralcio” means simply a few pages, original nonetheless, printed in a magazine. Pages are indicated as in "from” “to", for example: 229/231 means the text comprises three pages (229, 230 and 231). If the magazine that contained the pages is not mentioned, it is because it is unknown to us.

"After a few more years inflow of immigration at the present rate, Canada's future expansion as an agricultural, lumbering, mining and industrial country will depend upon the exploitation of the natural resources of the Dominion's vast, unexplored northland. Within this designation may be classed the northern portions of the provinces of Quebec, Ontario, Saskatchewan, Alberta and British Columbia, the Yukon Territory and those vast regions known as the Northwest Territories. This volume does not deal with the undeveloped natural wealth of the whole of Canada's unexploited northland, however, but only with that of those parts of the new provinces of Saskatchewan and Alberta which lie north of the Saskatchewan watershed; of Ungava; of Keewatin; and of Mackenzie. This represents an area fairly stupendous in its extent." - from Introduction.

Rubber stamp atop title page reads "Law Library, Law Society Vancouver B.C.". No other markings. Average wear. Binding sound. Lovely gilt illustration adorns green front board.
