unbound. Zustand: very good(+). Map. Uncolored engraving. Image measures 22.75" x 19.5", page including text measures 26.5" x 27 7/8". Beautiful and rare chart of the Atlantic including South America and parts of North America, Europe and Africa. Features lines of magnetic variation, or how much the compass deviates from true north. As explained in the two columns of pasted text, these observations are based upon the work of Dr. Edmond Halley in 1700 with additions in 1744. Other elements include two compass roses, extensive place names, and a note and depiction of fabled sea birds off the eastern coast of South America. The map was originally published by William Mount, John Mount and Thomas Page in "The English Pilot. The Fourth Book" circa 1750. This edition was reissued by William Mount II and James Davidson. Light offsetting. Expert repair to split along original centerfold. The "English Pilot" was a sea-chart atlas published in several editions from 1671 to 1803. The Mount family was active in publishing in various manifestations for many generations from the 1650s to 1800.

No binding. Zustand: Fair. 455 x 575 mm., with recent outline and wash colour, with extended margins and wormhole repair lower centrefold, otherwise in good condition. A large-scale sea chart of the southern portion of South America below 15 degrees south latitude. This records San Salvador on the Brazilian coast and Lima on the west coast. It extends southwards to record Tierra del Fuego. The only internal detail delineated is the region from Lake Titicaca to the silver mountain of Potosi. Richard Mount (1654-1722) was apprenticed to William Fisher and married his daughter Sarah in 1682. Two years later Fisher and Mount formed a partnership. Their early sea atlas publications like their competitors were similarly entitled and included the 'Atlas Maritimus'. Mount's own apprentice Thomas Page (fl.1700-d.1733) joined him in 1698. One of their earliest publications is the 'Atlas Maritimus Novus' in 1702 published in a further edition in 1708. Only two examples of the first edition can be traced: the Library of Congress and the National Maritime Museum, Greenwich. That first edition contained this new chart. It has not been identified in any edition of the Fourth Part of the English Pilot which was devoted to America making this an extremely rare chart. Richard Mount was born in 1654 and died 29 June 1722 after being kicked in the leg by a cart horse on London Bridge. The firm of Mount and Page continued for over a century publishing sea charts. The British Prime Minister David Cameron is a direct descendant of the Mount family. Provenance: Jonathan Potter 2000; Juan and Peggy Rada Collection.

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. A SHIPBOARD COPY OF THE ENGLISH PILOT USED BY AMERICAN CAPTAINS IN THE EARLY REPUBLIC -- FROM THE LIBRARY OF JOHN GOLDEN. London: J. Mount, T. Page, W. Mount and T. Page, 1780. Thirty-third edition (Verner). Folio (18 ¾" x 12 5/16", 477mm x 312mm). [Full collation available.] With 25 engraved charts, of which 8 are double, 12 folding and 4 integral with the text; and many woodcut charts and coastal profiles integral with the text. Bound in contemporary speckled sheep (re-backed) with a blind roll border. On the spine, five raised bands. Title green to red sheep in the second panel. All edges of the text-block sprinkled brown. Re-backed and re-cornered. A large (9 3/4", 250mm diameter) scorch-ring to the front board with soiling generally. Joints strengthened with Japanese paper, along with some similar repairs to the edges of a handful of leaves. Internally tanned and offset, with a little foxing and soiling. A few splits to the mapsheets, two with repairs. Large filled losses to the first and rear free end-papers. Ink ownership inscription of "John Tremells his Book Dated at Sea 1791/ Jno Tremells Cap.t Caleb Hathaway Master of the Brig Nancy" as well as verse, sums, lists, pen trials etc. to the rear binder's blank and end-papers (see below). Presented with two manuscript fragments (one a receipt from Tremells). Books of coastal charts and profiles had been published by the Dutch since the XVIc. Lucas Janszoon Waghenaer was the pioneer of the genre, such that "Waggoner" became the English term for coastal atlases, an early proprietary eponym. The English, great XVIIc enemies of the Dutch, began to catch up with John Seller's English Pilot series, beginning in 1671. Seller was named in that year hydrographer to Charles II, and began in earnest to chart the coasts of Britain (the first book), the Continent (the second), the Orient (third), America (fourth, first published 1689) and Africa (fifth). Cumming in his British Maps of Colonial America calls it "the first significant collection of charts exclusively of the American coasts to be published in England. . . The English Pilot: The Fourth Book must have been a godsend. . . to the navigator of American waters in that period, it was his Bible. Whatever its shortcomings, there was really no substitute, no real competitor, for over sixty years" (p. 39). Coolie Verner published "A carto-bibliographical study of The English Pilot. The Fourth Book" (1960), in which he traced 37 editions -- modern bibliographers might call some of them issues -- of a shifting and growing work that was published for over a century (the final edition was in 1794). From the 18 charts of the first edition the present work has grown to 25. Bibliographers are keen to assert the rarity of the work, though that is not entirely borne out by the market. That said, of this 1780 edition, there are just 9 examples in institutional collections per OCLC. What distinguishes the present volume is the rich set of annotations by an early owner: John Tremells, an American sailor active in the 1790's and 1800's, who received and doubtless used the volume while at sea. The ownership inscription may indicate that it was given to Tremells by Captain Caleb Hathaway, master of the brig Nancy in 1795. By 1798 Tremells was commanding the schooner Swift as a merchantman in the "Quasi-War" between the U.S. and France, principally over Caribbean maritime rights, which was a turning-point in the buildup of the U.S. Navy. Indeed, it seems that Hathaway -- and perhaps Tremells as well -- was in Philadelphia; several of their circle corresponded with Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson. Arader has acquired the present volume twice: first at Swann (6 December 2007, lot 20) and again at the Sotheby's New York sale of John Golden (22 November 2022, lot 39); Golden purchased the book from Arader in October 2010.
