In den WarenkorbHardcover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Edition. Observations on the Present State of the Highlands of Scotland, with a View of the Causes and Probable Consequences of Emigration, by the Earl of Selkirk, 1805. Printed for Longman, Hurst, Rees, Orme, London; 1805. This volume is lacking the main title page, and only has the half title, but through comparison, this is the 1805 first edition. It is stated on the final Appendix page lvi that the book is printed by R. Taylor and Co of London, whereas the second edition of 1906 was printed by Ballantyne of Edinburgh. The second edition also has a slightly different pagination so this is clearly the first printing. A very good hardback with leather spine and corners - would be near fine except for the missing title page. A later rebinding, but not recent. Raised bands and red morocco title label. Some wear to spine leather. Bookplate of Kilberry. Binding tight and secure. Minor age spotting to endpapers and a few pages at extremities, but text is otherwise lovely and clean except for a few pages which have a few marks or spots. There is one spread on which there are relevant annotations in pencil. A handsome volume. Text in English. vii + 223pp + lvi Appendix. Dimensions: Approximately 214mm high x 140mm wide x 20mm deep. Weight: approximately 463g (unpacked weight). More photos on request.

"In 1792, Thomas Douglas, 5th Earl of Selkirk, undertook an extensive tour through the Scottish Highlands and became convinced that emigration thence was unavoidable. He also recognized the need of some controlling hand to direct it. He first conceived the idea of a settlement at the Red River (now Winnipeg) but this did not materialize until 1811. The above work was partly written as a defense against various reports which had subsequently been spread concerning his colonization schemes. In it he speaks of the tide of emigration to the U.S.A. and suggests that this emigration might be turned to Canada. He also speaks at length of the success of his settlement at Prince Edward Island, which he had founded when his first attempts at the Red River had not met with success". Lande.

In-8 de VII-232-LXI pp., cartonnage de l'époque. Deuxième édition (édition originale en 1805). Thomas Douglas (1771-1820) cinquième comte de Selkirk, séjourna dans les Highlands où il découvre le sort des fermiers sans terre. Il envisagea dès lors deux projets de colonisation à Sault Ste. Marie (Ontario), l'autre à l'Île-du-Prince-Édouard. Le projet ontarien ne vit pas le jour mais en 1803, des navires transportèrent des immigrants écossais à l'Île-du-Prince-Édouard. Malgré la critique du ministère des Colonies de la Grande-Bretagne et de la Royal Highland and Agricultural Society of Scotland, son livre connut un vif succès et fit de Selkirk une célébrité.Voyageant en Amérique du Nord, entre Halifax, Boston, Montréal et Toronto, Douglas revint en 1808 sur une proposition qu'il avait faite six ans auparavant visant à établir une colonie à la rivière Rouge. Suite aux problèmes financiers de la Compagnie de la Baie d'Hudson qui était propriétaire du territoire, Selkirk signa en 1811 un accord qui stipulait qu'en échange de l'établissement d'une colonie la compagnie vendait à Selkirk 116 000 milles carrés de terres pour 10 shillings.Ex-libris manuscrit à l'encre du temps « T. Guillemard » sur le titre.Sabin 20704 ; Kress B5113 ; John Morgan Gray, Dictionnaire biographique du Canada, V, pp. 289-295.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Edition. 8vo. pp. vii, [1]blank, 223, [1]blank, lvi. with half-title. later quarter morocco (spine rubbed, a few leaves browned). First Edition. The Earl of Selkirk developed a particular concern for the economic plight of the Scottish Highlanders, which was heightened during an extensive tour undertaken in 1792. Convinced that emigration was the only possible solution, he developed colonization schemes centred on Prince Edward Island, Upper Canada, and the Red River (what is now Winnipeg). This work was written partially to defend himself against the numerous slanderous reports as to his motives in promoting colonization. It presents an accurate and clearly written assessment of the political and economic conditions in Scotland at the time, the possibilities offered by Canada, and a fairly lengthy discussion of the successful Scottish settlement at Prince Edward Island.
