A view from "from Nature" by Wilhelm Heine, with figures after daguerrotypes by Eliphalet Brown and prepared for Commodore Perry's "Narrative of the… Expedition of an American Squadron to the China Seas and Japan.". Madeira was the first stop for Perry's expedition after embarking on his first visit to Japan: the squadron appearing as dots on the distant harbour.

Commodore Perry was in charge of the expedition to establish diplomatic relations with Japan and it was partly as a result of his mission that Japan embarked upon its modernisation programme. In a long and distinguished career as a U.S. Naval officer, Perry commanded ships in several wars, including the War of 1812 and the Mexican-American War. He led the Perry Expedition (the present document) which ended Japan's isolationism and signed the Convention of Kanagawa between Japan and the United States in 1854. He pioneered an apprentice system which establish the curriculum at the U.S. Naval Academy, Annapolis, and championed the new steam engine which modernised the navy and led to the moniker "Father of the Steam Navy" Sabin 30968.

(Sabin 6333) Signed by Oliver Hazard Perry on front free endpaper, with the following inscription: "Com'o. O.H. Perry / US Ship John Adams." Additional signature by his wife (Elizabeth Champlin Mason Perry) below the signature: "Mrs. E.C. Perry / Feb'y 1845 / Brooklyn." Provenance: Book was passed down through the Perry family. Sold at Sotheby's, 2018. In 1818, the Perry-Elliott affair came to a head when Perry wrote to Navy Secretary Benjamin Crowninshield preferring court-martial charges against his former subordinate. Not wishing to expose the nation to the controversial aspect of Perry's splendid victory on Lake Erie, President James Monroe offered the prestigious title of "Commodore" to Oliver if he'd drop the charges against Elliott. Upon accepting that offer in early 1819 Perry set sail for the Orinoco River, Venezuela, aboard the frigate John Adams (carrying this very book with him) accompanied by the schooner Nonsuch, there to discourage piracy, while maintaining friendly diplomatic relations with the Republic of Venezuela and the Republic of Buenos Aires. Shifting his flag to the shallow-draft Nonsuch Perry sailed upriver to Angostura to negotiate an anti-piracy agreement with President Simon Bolivar. A favorable treaty was signed on August 11 with Vice-President Francisco Antonio Zea in the absence of Bolivar (who was engaged in the liberation of New Granada), but when the schooner started downriver, many of her crew, including Perry, had been stricken with yellow fever. Despite the crew's efforts to reach Trinidad for medical assistance, the commodore died on board Nonsuch on August 23, 1819, his 34th birthday, as the ship was nearing Port of Spain, his flagship John Adams in sight. He was buried in Port of Spain with great honors while the Nonsuch's crew acted as honor guard. Perry's remains were taken back to the United States in 1826 and interred in Newport, Rhode Island. Originally interred in the Old Common Burial Ground, his body was eventually moved to Newport's Island Cemetery. The first American edition of Spanish America, from the personal library of Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry, inscribed by him enroute to South America aboard the U.S.S. John Adams. (illustrator).

Plates I and II are not present at page 256 (where colored fish plates III-XII are bound in), but they are also not referenced in the text index on 286 and hence we feel this is complete as published. House issue, O. P. Nicholson printer. Very good. Tears and edge browning to the edges of several of the folding plates in rear. Vol 3: xliii, [1]-705 pages. Very good. House issue, O.P. Nicholson printer. The first portion is text, the last 705 pages are zodiacal light observations (sky charts), each with a diagram of the night sky with explanation in text opposite. Cloth. An important work documenting Commodore Perry's expedition. Volume 2 contains "Observations in Relation to Cyclones of the Western Pacific : Embraced in a Communication to Commodore Perry" by William C. Redfield, and was the last work done by Redfield before his death. This set is often found with different plate counts and/or occasional substitutions. There was also a one volume edition published in the same year by Appleton missing some of the information in this three volume set. A fascinating read and view into this expedition.

The expedition visited the then independent kingdom of Lew Chew (Ryukyu) in 1854, where famously Perry signed a trade agreement on July 11th. The American flag can be seen flying atop the building in the middle ground, but it is almost an afterthought: the focus of the picture are the Lew Chew coolies and the landscape.
