Sobre este artículo
Boston : William Veazie, 1865. First Edition. Hardcover. Good. Limited edition of only 250 copies. Bound in publisher's cloth. Good binding and cover. Light fray to spine head/tail. Light foxing to end pages. William Webster Mill's book plate (of Marietta Ohio). Includes a catalog listing from Argosy from 1970. Reprinted from the 1673 edition, contains Josselynn's voyages of 1638 and 1663. One of the earliest contemporary descriptions of New York, Albany, and the rest of New Netherlands after the cession from Holland in 1667. "Josselyn first visited America in 1638--39. He came a second time and stayed from 1663 to 1671, when he returned to England and wrote this book. His own observations are valuable, but his history is erroneous. He frequently cites Johnson. The work contains many curious particulars regarding medicine and surgery, as did his former work, New England's Rarities Discovered." Church 627. Howes J254. Sabin 36673. Wing J-1091.
