Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The publications of the Hakluyt Society (founded in 1846) made available edited (and sometimes translated) early accounts of exploration. The first series, which ran from 1847 to 1899, consists of 100 books containing published or previously unpublis…hed works by authors from Christopher Columbus to Sir Francis Drake, and covering voyages to the New World, to China and Japan, to Russia and to Africa and India. This volume, published in 1852, was edited by John Barrow, son of the distinguished promoter of Arctic exploration Sir John Barrow. It contains two accounts of exploration around Hudson's Bay - the narrative of Captain William Coats who made several voyages in the region in the 1720s and 30s, and the ship's log and other documents of Captain Middleton of H.M.S. Furnace who in 1741-2 attempted to discover the much sought-after North-West Passage from the Atlantic to the Pacific.

4pp., ,4to. Bifolium. Printed in gold on shiny art paper, with the two illustrations in black. In good condition, on lightly-aged paper. The recto of the first leaf carries a memoir of Lady Barrow, 'Reproduced, by permission, from "The Surrey Comet," Dec. 25, 1899.': 'LADY BARROW - nee Rosamond Hester Elizabeth, daughter of the…late William Pennell, Esq., Consul-General in Brazil - was born January 5th, 1810, and was the twenty-first child of her parents. Six weeks after her birth she became the adopted daughter of the Right Hon. John Wilson Croker, who had married her eldest sister. [.] While at Kensington Palace, when she was about nine, she was twice sent for to play with the Queen (then Princess Victoria), but on both occasions she could not be found. As a girl, Misss Croker was celebrated for her beauty, and of her portrait, at the age of 17, by Sir Thomas Lawrence, it was said by Allen [sic] Cunningham, that "men stood before it in a half-circle admiring its loveliness in the exhibition: it was all airiness and grace." [.] A further entry recalls an interesting reminiscence of the Duke of Wellington: "Twelve Days before the Duke of Wellington's death, he had gone over from Walmer to Folkestone, for the special purpose of seeing Mr. and Mrs. Croker and Lady Barrow. The Duke won the hearts of her five little daughters by writing his name in their albums. On his return to the station, the Duke handed the ladies in, and insisted on taking the front seat, saying, I must sit opposite to Nony (Lady Barrow)." One of Lady Barrow's great friends was the late Bishop Wilberforce, who was also godfather to some of her children. [.]' The central pages carry facing reproductions of miniatures of Lady Barrow, the first by Sir Thomas Lawrence, executed in 1827, the second, by G. F. Zink, made from a photograph taken in 1899. The last page carries two poems, the first, by 'R. N. B. [i.e. Lady Barrow herself]. titled 'Written on having passed my Ninetieth Birthday'; the second, 'taken from an American Magazine'. A final religious sentiment is followed by: 'W[illiam]. B[ramley].-M[oore]., 26 R[ussell]. Sq[uare]., Jan. 6th, 1900.' Scarce: no copy on COPAC or OCLC WorldCat.

No Binding. Zustand: Very Good. Signed letter from the admiralty official and explorer, John Barrow (1764-1848), to the botanist, William Jackson Hooker (1785-1865), discussing the explorer Hugh Clapperton's mission to West Africa in 1825. 'My dear Sir, I this morning found your letter of the 11th & its enclosure, the latter of…which I have forwarded to Portsmouth where I hope it will reach Mr Morrison before the ship sails, which I think will not be till the 18th til the soonest. I am equally. glad that Mr Morrison is engaged as I have no great opinion of the talent of Mr Dickson as a ?, but being and old friend of Capt Clapperton and showing a most eager desire to go and do his best, Lord Bathurst very good naturedly allowed him to do so, however he was equally ready to appoint Mr Morrison.Your very obliging offer to undertake the botanical part of any discoveries that may be made is highly creditable and to that readyness on your part the public is very much indebted. On the last expedition little has been done in that way. Poor Rodney might be considered as hors de combat at ?? and ought to have returned from there, for I do not find from his few notes that he either collected or described anything; and the other two had no knowledge of natural history - they however have brought home a few specimens of minerals & plants, the animals appear to be precisely those of Southern Africa - both birds and beasts. I believe Mr Brown has taken the few specimens of plants & fruits. What he will make of the mango in its wild state I know not, but I suppose it has hitherto been considered exclusively asiatic.'. Signed by Author(s).
