1875WRCAM50727London 1875. 349-356pp. Modern blue wrappers printed paper label. Fine. The report extracted from a larger volume was compiled by George Richards Francis M'Clintock and Sherard Osborn to provide guidance to the impending proposed British expedition to the North Pole to be led by Sir George Strong Nares. In late May of the same year Nares would command two ships north around Greenland failing to reach the North Pole but becoming the first explorer to successfully pilot ships through the channel between Greenland and Ellesmere Islands; the channel was later named for him. In this report Richards M'Clintock and Osborn recommend two ships the Alert and the Bloodhound for Nares though the Bloodhound would be renamed the Discovery before the expedition began. The scope of the expedition is defined: "to attain the highest northern latitude and if possible to reach the North Pole." Also includes information on the route of the expedition the orders to be given various kinds of stores and provisions to be taken whether or not dogs should be used and much more.

Octavo 8 3/4" x 5 1/2" issued in blue cloth with gilt lettering to spine and gilt sailing ship to front cover. Second Series volumes 152-155 and 139. First edition. Overshadowed for nearly two hundred years in European scholarship by the literary and scientific achievements and reputation of his eldest son George Forster the author of this journal J R Forster Principal naturalist on James Cook's second voyage was nevertheless recognized by many contemporaries as one of the 'universal geniuses' of the late eighteenth century. Despite Forster's diverse prodigious and sometimes brilliant output the constant circumstances of his career and personality were such that his work was dogged by debilitating disputes and vendettas with the result that those many longer more epoch-making and polished works which would have established him as the leading pioneering comparative anthropologist linguist geographer and zoologist of the Pacific and a most competent student in those disciplines of Africa North America and Europe especially Russia have remained only as obscure and seldom-used manuscripts. After Forster's death in 1798 his books and manuscripts - 'there has never been . a private library in Germany to compare with it.' wrote the royal Librarian in Berlin - were sold to the royal Library of the King of Prussia later the Prussian State Library. Among the numerous Forster 'treasurers' deposited in Berlin as his six volume journal in the Resolution. As the journal o a highly literate landsman-at-sea it offers many new typically unrestrained insights into the day-to-day relationships life and thinking and theory-testing on this the most scientific and epic of Cook's three voyages. It is also the fundament upon which George Forster wrote his classic travelogue A Voyage round the World 1777 that humane influence - in many translations - upon science and belles-lettres. It is too the key to the science and anthropology of this voyage the central document to understanding the naturalists' day-to-day work and finds. Set alongside the journals of Cook and his other principals - which it often surpasses intellectually and empirically - anthropologists ethnolinguists geographers geologists botanists zoologists especially ornithologists and medical and literary historians as well as students of James Cook and the eighteenth century mind will find much new observation and theory. For the two Forsters fashioned forces to influence Alexander von Humboldt and foretell Charles Darwin. Condition: Jackets with light edge wear spine ends rubbed else very good to fine in like jacket.
