Bound in contemporary sheep rebacked blind-tooled borders to upper and lower covers. Minor rubbing to covers. Some spotting to the fourth map Verner no. 62 and adjacent letterpress pages small tear to fold of map 10 Verner no. 60 two small circular mends to title page not affecting text otherwise remarkably well preserved.</p><p>A spectacular copy of the final edition of the <em>English Pilot</em> <em>The Fourth Book</em> the first wholly English sea atlas of American waters. The work was sufficiently in demand to justify 37 legitimate editions from 1689 to 1794 and three pirated editions. All editions are rare. During the history of this title its charts underwent numerous changes. The first edition contained only 18 maps whereas this 1794 final edition contained 26.</p><p>"<em>The English Pilot</em> was the first major sea-atlas produced in England. In its final form it consisted of five separate books and <em>The Fourth Book</em> was the first wholly English sea-atlas of American waters. Although the idea originated with John Seller he was involved in producing only the first two books. William Fisher and John Thornton produced <em>The Fourth Book</em> in 1689 and their successors Mount and Page continued to print it for over 100 years Seller's proposal for a 'Sea Waggoner' resulted in the production of <em>The English Pilot</em> which consisted of five separate volumes with a common generic title. Book One included the southern navigation and Book Two the northern. Book Three was concerned with the Orient Book Four with America and Book Five contained Africa. Each book or volume has its own independent publishing history and appeared in numerous editions. The five separate books constitute a set only by virtue of the general title and under that title <em>The English Pilot</em> is the first great sea-atlas produced in England. Of the five books the fourth has the longest publication history and is the best known" Verner p. v.</p><p>Throughout its history <em>The Fourth Book</em> showed very few changes in textual matter and the content of the volume was established between the editions of 1706 and 1721.</p><p>The present example of the 1794 edition is complete and contains the following maps see Verner pp. xv-xx for full list of editions and charts from 1689 to 1794:</p><p>1.

A surprisingly rare pocket atlas illustrating the theatre of the "tegenwoordigen" present war probably meaning the War of the Austrian Succession 1740-1748 but possibly the Seven Years' War 1756-1763. The title-page notes that it is suited for officers travellers and lovers of geography to carry in a pocket. The text in Dutch gives a geographic description only of "Duytsland" Germany including Austria Bohemia and a few other areas whereas the maps also cover the Low Countries the English Channel northwest France and to the east as far as Warsaw Krakow and Belgrade. The 23 detail maps were designed so that they could be assembled with the key map to make a single wall map whose cartographic image would measure 53 x 90 cm.With a contemporary owner's bookplate embossed stamp and library labels. With the text leaves somewhat browned not affecting the maps or the plate with scales and the first 2 leaves slightly worn but generally in good condition.

Cook Bougainville and La Pérouse contributed decisively to the exploration of the Pacific. <br /> On the unexpected publication of this famous voyage at Paris in the previous year 1797 there was considerable competition among English publishers to bring out the English translation. Three different translations were made and published during 1798-99 and different engravers were employed for making the plates. Stockdale's appeared first in June 1798.
