Sobre este artículo
Pari: Librarie Plo, 1893. [1],321pp. plus folding map. Half title. Original printed wrappers. Wrappers slightly soiled, spine sunned. A few scattered fox marks, heavier on front and rear free endpapers and outside edges of pages, but generally quite clean internally. Very good. A sympathetic and thoughtful portrait of Hawaii. Sauvin arrived in New York and journeyed overland, admiring Niagara Falls, Chicago, and the Rocky Mountains before reaching San Francisco. The majority of the book is devoted to the islands of Hawaii, however, and includes information about history, native culture, social development, natural wonders, and the leper colony on Molokai. The folding map depicts the archipelago, with the principal towns and geographical features marked. FORBES 4500.
