Sobre este artículo
Amsterdam: La Feuille (?), 1750. VG+ w/hand colored outlines. 5 separate scales (Echelle). This French map gives native american tribal locations in some detail, which was a frequent occurence in maps of this type and time. Most of main image is labelled as Canada, with a nice view of the Great Lakes. The Colonies are labelled, with no state borders and nothing to indicate the existence of the USA (the above date is approximate, and the name "Feuille" appears above the centerfold, just to the right of the title, with XXXV appearing in the upper left outside the neatline). The map image measures 29.5x43cm, with hand coloring (the pattern of coloring is typical of the times). The precise origin of this image is not known...
Sinopsis
"My Heart Is Afraid that it will have to suffer," the boy told the alchemist one night as they looked up at the moonless sky."Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself. And that no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of its dreams."Every few decades a book is published that changes the lives of its readers forever. The Alchemist is such a book. With over a million and a half copies sold around the world, The Alchemist has already established itself as a modern classic, universally admired. Paulo Coelho's charming fable, now available in English for the first time, will enchant and inspire an even wider audience of readers for generations to come.The Alchemist is the magical story of Santiago, an Andalusian shepherd boy who yearns to travel in search of a worldly treasure as extravagant as any ever found. From his home in Spain he journeys to the markets of Tangiers and across the Egyptian desert to a fateful encounter with the alchemist.The story of the treasures Santiago finds along the way teaches us, as only a few stories have done, about the essential wisdom of listening to our hearts, learning to read the omens strewn along life's path, and, above all, following our dreams.

The Prime Meridian: Antique Maps & Books is owned and operated by Joel & Deborah Kovarsky. We first opened in 1998, but have had a decades-old interest in old maps, books, and paper, stemming from a comparable long-standing interest in how knowledge is used. Our business is run via the internet. We do not run an open shop, however we do welcome visitors by appointment only. Before attempting a visit, please contact us. We are a specialty business, dealing in antiquarian maps and related books (atlases, history of cartography, selected reference books, etc.). Please feel free to contact us for specific inquiries.
