An excellent copy of this sought after travel work. ***For a book now 165 years old, this copy can be described as near fine, with very few discernible faults.

No reading lean to the binding. Spine tight. Internally also near fine, with clean pages - hardly any foxing and no creases or tears - just a couple of top corner tips turned.

Between that date and the present, about thirty thousand copies have been printed. The subject was one of a kind at once to command a large circulation of the work: and circumstances have continued to arise, in connexion with the Island, which have greatly tended to sustain the interest felt in the place and its inhabitants. The arrival of their pastor in England, his admission, whilst here, to holy orders, and his interview with the Queen and the Prince Consort, were pleasing and important occurrences, when viewed in reference to the original history of Pitcairn. Still more eventful days, however, were in store for the people. The provision made by the British Government for their transfer to Norfolk Island, and the further measures recently adopted for their benefit by Sir William Denison, the governor, have brought to our minds the progress and prospects of this remarkable community in a striking manner.' (Quote taken from the new Preface to the twelfth edition) ***'x.' (Quote taken from Wiki) ***A revised and enlarged twelfth edition of this beautiful little book, in near fine original condition. Very uncommon in this condition. Of interest to collectors of work concerning Pitcairn Island. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.

In den WarenkorbSm. 8vo., Eleventh Edition, with engraved portrait frontispiece, 14 engraved plates and engraved chart, contemporary signatures on front endpapers; original brown diced cloth, upper board blocked in gilt and blind, backstrip blocked and lettered in gilt, primrose endpapers, expertly rebacked, a remarkably bright, clean, crisp co…py in publisher's original pictorial binding. With 4pp publisher's catalogue bound in at end, and binder's ticket of Trickett & Son on rear paste-down. With a relevant postcard and cutting loosely inserted. First published in 1853, this is arguably the best mid-nineteenth century account of the aftermath of the mutiny. Its publication was stimulated by a resurrection of public interest in the BOUNTY saga following the visit to England in 1850 of the Pitcairn Pastor George Nobbs. The work includes considerable detail on the fate of the mutineers, their descendants and the present population; this edition benefits from 'additional intelligence respecting Pitcairn and the Islanders'. The Society continued to publish the work in various editions until the early years of the twentieth century. SCARCE IN ANY EARLY EDITION.
