Paris: Fuchs, Libraire, 1794. Hardcover. See Description. First French Edition. 8vo. pp. xii, 532. (The preface - pp. v-viii - is bound in the rear between pp. 530 and 531). Bound in full period calf with gilt spine. Binding shows rubbing and wear but is still sturdy and attractive. Interior pages contain some minor wear, spotting and age-toning. Periodic corner stress marks and corner creases are present. Pages 281-88 reveal a small spot of worming in the lower margin. Carl Peter Thunberg (1743-1828) was a Swedish botanist and a student of Carl Linnaeus. His travel log (first published in Swedish as "Resa uti Europa, Asia, Africa
" in four volumes, 8vo., Uppsala, 1788-93) recounts his botanical collecting voyages with the Dutch East India Company to South Africa, Java and Japan. Among other observations Thunberg describes the Hottentot (Khoikhoi) peoples of South Africa and mentions his visit to Nagasaki in Japan. The translator of the French edition claims that Thunbergs verbose and detailed style makes an exact translation undesirable. Use was therefore made of Forsters German abbreviation or abstract but several passages which Forster omitted are here preserved. The final section (pp. 405-450) contains excerpts related to Japan taken from J.G. Georgis "Voyage en Sibérie", including a description of Japanese paper-making. A Japanese-French vocabulary is included (pp. 451-486). [Cordier, Japonica, p. 447, Arnold Arboretum, p. 690; Gay 3151].

1873 1ed David Livingstone Lost & Found AFRICA Missionary Voyages Tyler Stanley"If you have men who will only come if they know there is a good road, I don't want them. I want men who will come if there is no road at all."
― David Livingstone
David Livingstone was a Scottish medical missionary with the London Missionary Society, an explorer in Africa, and one of the most popular British heroes of the late-19th-century in the Victorian era. Author Josiah Tyler published an important account of Livingstone and Henry Stanley in Africa entitled "Livingstone Lost and Found". In this book, Tyler provides a complete account of Africa, the local tribes and people, local customs, missionary voyages, diamond and gold mining, and much more.

Descripción:
Indianapolis: Dog Ear Publishing, January 2013. Trade Paperback. Fine. Slight reading wear to corners, otherwise pristine. Not from a library. No remainder mark. Not clipped. Not damaged. Suitable for gifting. 163 pages. The 25 authors of this book were volunteers in the first Peace Corps rural community development project in Africa: Sierra Leone, 1965-67. They are also the first group to tell a collective story of Peace Corps volunteers, anywhere. The Peace Corps was in its infancy then, and memories of John Kennedy were strong among the young volunteers. Sierra Leone was also in its infancy in the first few years after independence, before military coups and tribal warfare became common. The authors forthrightly recount their feelings of loneliness and isolation, and their frightening experiences with secret societies and witchcraft, but their uniquely optimistic "can-do" American attitude brought most through a great life experience.

Bound in brown half-leather over marbled boards, title in gilt within a red title piece. The first edition of the author's first book. William Wilson (1772-1849) inherited a substantial sum from an uncle, and decided to indulge his passion for travel. He travelled throughout Europe and The Middle East and wrote a series of books. This was his first, and it was the most popular, going through several editions. This is a good copy as all plates, including the frontispiece, have been excised. The boards show moderate wear, heavier at the spine ends. The front hinge is cracked. The text block is mainly clean with a few marks of unknown origin.
