MACGILLIVRAY, W.MareMagnum

The Life, Travels and Researches of Baron Humboldt; with a Narrative of Humboldt's most Recent Researches including his Celebrated Journey to the Ural Mountains, and the Caspian Sea, etc.

12mo [18 x 12 cm]; 418 pages, engraved plates including frontis and views which are new to this edition, where the illustrations list reflects the earlier edition. original blind-stamped blue cloth, gilt spine title lettering and vignette, lightly rubbed, small erasure on endpaper, clean with the original tissue guards for the plates, very good copy. A picture of this book is available upon request by email. "Scientist, explorer and diplomat, Humboldt was the last truly Universal Man. He left his name on the maps of five continents, over a thousand places in the world are named after him and even a crater on the moon bears his name." (Douglas Botting). Humboldt explored little known South America, climbing Chimborazo, the highest known mountain, which made him world famous. He collected a mass of data, which laid the foundation of modern physical geography and established the concept of plant geography. On his return he visited the United States where he became friend and advisor to President Jefferson. Later in his life, in his sixties, he traveled to Siberia, the Ural mountains, Caspian Sea, etc. Macgillivray's book was first published in 1832 but this edition was brought up-to-date with Humboldt's later explorations to the period of his death, and extra material added.

Thomas Ashe (1770-1835)Biblio.com

Travels in America Performed in 1806 for the Purpose of Exploring the Rivers Alleghany Monongahela Ohio and Mississippi and Ascertaining the Produce and Condition of their Banks and Vicinity

1808E0058ix366 pages. Small octavo 7 1/4" x 4 1/4" in the original leather binding with black label in gilt to spine. Howes:354 First printed in 1806 in London in three volumes. Second printing. Thomas Ashe 1770-1835 was born in Dublin Ireland and was a soldier and memoirist. Much of his life was checkered with intrigue and fraud. His Memoirs and Confessions 1815 is an autobiographical account of 'criminal and delinquent' escapades beginning with the seduction of a girl in France. In America he edited the National Intelligencer and was arrested when attempting to steal treasures from churches in Latin America. His Travels in America first appeared in 1806. The narrative chronicles Ashe's travels by flatboat down the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers in 1806 and is one of the first travelogues written by a foreigner to comment specifically on the American inhabitants of the region. A unrestrained hatred of Americans can be found throughout the work. While the account is interesting and highly readable it was to create quite a stir and added to the wave of anti-British sentiment that would ultimately lead to the War of 1812.
