Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Having previously embarked on a collecting expedition to the Pyrenees, backed by Sir William Hooker and George Bentham, the botanist Richard Spruce (1817-93) travelled in 1849 to South America, where he carried out unprecedented exploration among the diverse flora across the northern part of the continent. After his death, Spruce's writings on fifteen fruitful years of discovery were edited as a labour of love by fellow naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace (1823-1913), whom Spruce had met in Santarém. This two-volume work, first published in 1908, includes many of the author's exquisite illustrations. Showing the determination to reach plants in almost inaccessible areas, Spruce collected hundreds of species, many with medicinal properties, notably the quinine-yielding cinchona tree, as well as the datura and coca plants. Featuring four maps, Volume 2 includes discussion of the Peruvian and Ecuadorian Andes and the cinchona forests of western Chimborazo.

In den WarenkorbFirst edition, publisher's presentation copy for review, with its blind stamp on the title pages and printed review notice loosely inserted. Spruce was sent to South America in 1849 by his wealthy botanical patrons, remaining there for 14 years. In late 1849, he travelled up the Amazon to Santarém, where he met Wallace, who was seeking evidence for his theories of evolution. On his travels, Spruce identified many new species of plant, including 200 species of fungi and a number of plants with medicinal properties, including the datura and coca plants. In 1852, he interrupted his travels to assist Wallace, who had been struck down by malaria, and oversee his safe passage down the river. After his friend's death in 1893, Wallace edited his botanical papers, and this work "reflects [Spruce's] gift for analysis, description, and narrative, along with his dry humour" (ODNB). Howgego II S41; Wallace Online S731.1-2. 2 vols, octavo. Tissue-guarded photogravure portrait frontispiece in vol. I, 7 maps (4 folding), illustrations, diagrams, and tables in text; vols each with 2 pp. publisher's advertisements at rear. Original green cloth, spines lettered in gilt, top edges gilt. Old green notation on rear pastedown of vol. I. A little rubbing and marking to cloth, spine lightly sunned: a very good set indeed.
