Sobre este artículo

Lacks map, else very good. Untrimmed. A single volume from an eighteen volume series by a noted German academic. Zimmermann (1743-1815) was a noted German geographer and zoologist.

This volume covers Alaska and Sibera, with illustrations of the native peoples, their dwellings, and a walrus, all pirated versions of plates from Cook's third voyage atlas. A very nice copy of this work, lacking only the map. Not in Ricks, Wickersham, or Lada-Mocarski. SABIN 106341. TOURVILLE 5032.
