Sobre este artículo
408, [4] pp.First edition of a very rare and little-known journal detailing an important voyage to the Pacific (1840-1841) by Francisco Michelena y Rojas, a native of Venezuela. The author first sailed for Hawaii, where he investigated the political history, traditions and customs. Having spent 33 days on the island, he sailed to Sydney, the Caroline Islands, the Philippines, Macao and Singapore. A few bibliographies erroneously say that it contains all seven of the author's voyages. In fact it is devoted entirely to the sixth, merely mentioning the others in the preface. It concludes with an errata page, a list of subscribers and a table of contents.Some browning and soiling, binding shows some wear, otherwise in good condition.l Ferguson 3697; Forbes 1431; Hill 1157; cf. Howgego, 1800-1850, M41.
