Sobre este artículo
Much on travel to the Northwest and polar regions, natural history, the Linnean system and other subjects, including a report on Mozart , a "very remarkable young musician." Among Americana collectors the book is notable for publishing the "journal of Maurelle, pilot with the fleet commanded by Don Juan de la Bodega, while exploring the coast northward of California in 1775; this portion was also issued in separate form."
Streeter mentions the account to be the only contemporary source in English of this important voyage.
See Howes B177 and Streeter Sale IV, 2445. Also: Sabin 3628.
