17932708028Madrid: Ibarra 1793. A very good copy. Quarto two volumes bound together with an engraved portrait of Magellan as frontispiece five fine large folding maps and five folding tables; original period binding of calf-backed marbled boards. <p><p>The full first edition complete with the separately published Apendice a la Relación Madrid 1793 which appeared ten years after the main work and is not present in all copies. This is the best early description of Patagonia and the Straits of Magellan giving the official account of the two expeditions made by Antonio de Córdoba to "ascertain the advisability of Spaniards continuing to use the Strait in voyages - the results indicated the negative. After these expeditions the Spanish trade routes were exclusively to east coast ports and then overland to the Pacific ports." Hill. As part of this the Relación provides a general history of earlier voyages of discovery to the Strait. The large folding maps fine and detailed are all based on observations made during the Córdoba voyages.</p> <p>Córdoba's exploration of the Strait of Magellan - recognised then as now an area of strategic and navigational significance - is accompanied by Vargas y Ponce's summary of the early explorations of the area mainly from an examination of original manuscripts in the Spanish archives. He discusses various means of navigating the Strait with detailed sailing instructions and describes the climate indigenous peoples and natural history of the region.</p> </p> . Ibarra unknown

Part I contained information on the construction and use of sextant and octants and was not reissued. Usually known by the French version of his name J. H. de Magellan 1723-1790 descended from the explorer Ferdinand Magellan was a Portuguese scientist whose work focused primarily on scientific instruments. He is credited with introducing English scientific instruments and the work of Joseph Priestley to the scientific community in France. After travels throughout Europe he settled in England in 1764 to pursue his scientific studies. He was elected a member of the Royal Society 1774 and was also a member of the Imperial Academy of Science in St. Petersburg and of the Royal Academy of Madrid. As an instrument maker and designer supplying the governments of Europe he proposed changes and improvements to astronomical and nautical observation instruments such as the quarters of a circle English sextants and octants in the reflection circle in the sextant and in the pendulum clock. As far as meteorological instruments are concerned he put forward improvements in barometers thermometers and presented a meteorographer. As regards physical instruments worthy of mention are his improvements to Atwoods machines and to the precision scale very important for the advances of chemistry. In Traite V in our book he deals with astronomic clocks and watches marine compasses protection against lightning and the theodolite. The final Traite is actually an extract from a letter from Magellan to a doctor friend in Paris describing the construction and use of a new inhaler or respirateur invented by a fellow member of the Royal Society the physician John Mudge and believed to cure infallibly catarrhal coughs.
