90541860s. Item One: 12mo 4 pp. On aged and foxed paper with slight wear causing loss to a couple of words of text. On two folded 4to leaves with two pages written by Shepherd in German on the reverse. The list is undated and the intended location is not named but the voyage is a major one. Divided into sections including 'Saddles &c' 'Guns & Rods' 'Books' beginning with 'Shakespeare - Ingoldby - Golden Treasure' 'Food &c. Fortnum & Mason' including two gallons of brandy and two quarts of whiskey. Other sections are headed with what are presumably the names of fellow-travellers: 'Edginton' and 'Edminston' 'Nigretti Zambesi Cassella &c'. The 'Collecting Materials' section reads 'Cases from 35 Charles St. Middlesex Hos. Extra Knives. Cotton Wool. <> Plaster of Paris. little large Scissors. Arsenical Soap & Brushes'. Shepherd toured Iceland in the spring and summer of 1862. His account of the voyage 'The North-West Peninsula of Iceland' was published five years later. Item Two: Itinerary and list of requisites in different hand from Item One apparently for an Alpine tour. 4to 2 pp. On aged and foxed paper. Itinerary on page headed 'Chamouni 5th Sunday'. List of places days of week and number of month from 'Paris. Wednesday 7.' to 'Zermatt Sun:'. The reverse carries the list of requisites in two columns. In bottom left-hand corner: 'Poste Restante Chanouny Savoy'. Item Three: Itemised receipt in German signed by 'A. Petersen' dated 6 January 1861. Large 8vo 2 pp. Densely written with numerous entries. [1860s?] unknown
8965Dated from 14 June to 7 July 1862. 4to 5 pp on five loose and uniform leaves. Very good on lightly aged paper. The first leaf is headed 'C. W. S. Acc' and is initialled at the foot 'Rt C. Wm. S.' The second is headed 'Sheet 2' with the rest numbered 3 to 5. It is clear from sheets 2 to 5 that one leaf - what should have been 'Sheet 1' - is lacking. Provides a fascinating insight into the practicalities of British nineteenth-century exploration and compliments Shepherd's 'The North-West Peninsula of Iceland: being the journal of a tour in Iceland in the spring and summer of 1862' published by Longmans Green and Co. in 1867. In April of 1862 with 'certain ornithological inquiries in view' Shepherd travelled from England to Iceland on the Arcturus 'in the company of my friends Mr. H. M. Upcher of Sherringham Hall Norfolk and Mr. G. G. Fowler of Gunton Hall Suffolk'. The accounts include advances 'To Fowler' and 'To Upcher'. The first page carries columns of credits and debits including £8 0s 1d received 'from the Sale of Ponies'. Shepherd's book ends with a description of the sale of 'our stud' but does not give the total fetched by the sale. The other four pages provide itemised entries around 25 to a page for the expenditure on the trip. These include £5 to 'Frenchman and Man to row us ashore' £6 'To men who rowed to Surtobrand and took us on board the Metha' £1 to 'Boy with eggs at Holar' £14 to 'Exchange horse that fell into the river at <Reakeavik>' 3s to 'Boy for lost Tackle Bag' and on the group's return 2s 6d for 'Beer at Adelphi'. From the Shepherd family archives. Dated from 14 June to 7 July [1862]. unknown

838 pages. "Even though the geographic limitations of this work are prescribed by the boundaries of a specific Icelandic settlement, its general scope and extensive background research defy this narrow categorization. The author not only traces the history of the settlement itself, from its beginnings to recent times, he includes a great deal of material of potential interest to those who may have only tenuous links with the Icelandic cultural heritage, at the same time establishing ties between thousands of Icelandic-North Americans and their native Iceland.... The author's disciplined approach has made the writing of this book an arduous task, but at the same time his stringent demands upon himself have enhanced the scholarly merit of his work immeasurably. Virtually unaided, the author has now completed and seen through to publication a more meticulous piece of research than any previously undertaking in the field of Icelandic ethnic history." - Haraldur Bessason, Professor and Head , Department of Icelandic Language and Literature, University of Manitoba.
