‎MERIDIANA: The Adventures of Three Englishmen and Three Russians in South Africa‎

‎1873. a handsome copy Translated from the French. With Numerous Illustrations. London: Sampson Low Marston Low & Searle 1873. 32 pp ads dated October 1872. Original green cloth pictorially decorated in black and gilt beveled all edges gilt.<br/><br/> First British Edition also the first edition in the English language. Three Englishmen. and three Russians. and their guide a bushman named Mokoum set out to measure the arc of a meridian in the Kalahari Desert of South Africa. Everything is going well until war is declared between England and Russia. Kytasaari This tale was initially published in the original French in 1872 as AVENTURES DE TROIS RUSSES ET DE TROIS ANGLAIS DANS L'AFRIQUE AUSTRALE. Sampson Low's English edition titled MERIDIANA with the subtitle's nationalities reversed in favor of the Englishmen was issued in November 1872 but was dated 1873 as here. In the same month some of these copies printed and bound in England were exported to the U.S. and equipped with the title page of Scribner's import house Scribner Welford and Armstrong likewise dated 1873 -- technically the American issue of the first English edition and extremely scarce today. Scribner Armstrong sans Welford then published the first edition actually produced in America; there was also an unauthorized American edition by Shepard titled ADVENTURES IN THE LAND OF THE BEHEMOTH with an altered translation and fewer illustrations published on the very same day. This edition has one of the great Verne pictorial bindings: a phalanx of crocodiles hungrily approaches an oblivious man holding a parasol. This copy is in green cloth one of several colors used without priority and has an ad catalogue dated October 1872 -- which we think is the earliest date we have also seen October 1873. The volume is just a little askew as always and a few gatherings stand slightly proud but this is a fine bright copy without any restoration or "improvement" of any kind. An early Verne edition that is quite scarce in this condition. Taves & Michaluk V009; Myers 39. unknown books‎

‎NORTH AGAINST SOUTH‎

‎1888. A Tale of the American Civil War. With Numerous Illustrations. London: Sampson Low Marston Searle & Rivington 1888. Original blue-grey cloth pictorially decorated in black and red all page edges gilt. First British Edition of this adventure tale taking place during the American Civil War. This is the tale of the antagonism between Burbank an anti-slavery Northerner now living near Jacksonville Florida and Texar a pro-slavery Southerner; Texar winds up kidnapping Burbank's daughter and hiding her in the Everglades and Burbank heads off in search of his daughter -- all as the Civil War rages around them. NORD CONTRE SUD came out in France in 1887 and by the end of the summer of that year the American pirate publisher George Munro came out with TEXAR'S VENGEANCE in his wrappered Seaside Library. In November 1887 Rand McNally published a hardbound American edition a different translation titled TEXAR'S REVENGE. Then this British edition hardbound and illustrated and the same translation as Rand McNally's came out in December 1887 though dated 1888. These were soon followed by Worthington's New York 1888 edition of TEXAR'S REVENGE. The book did not get good reviews in America: the New York Daily Tribune wrote In Jules Verne's story of "Texar". a very thin streak of narrative is padded to almost unwieldy proportions by a quantity of remarkably inaccurate information about the rebellion. If anyone thought the game worth the candle it would be easy to point out the various comical inaccuracies in the historical part of the story. quoted in T&M This copy is in the deluxe binding style with all edges gilt; its condition is very good -- spine a bit sunned as always volume slightly askew. This is a Verne title that we seldom see. Taves & Michaluk V033. unknown books‎

‎The Castle of the Carpathians.‎

‎London: Sampson Low Marston & Company 1893. Rare first edition of Verne's Gothic mystery novel that likely inspired Bram Stoker's Dracula. Octavo original illustrated cloth gilt titles to the spine and front panel top edge gilt pictorial endpapers engraved frontispiece illustrated with numerous engravings. In very good condition. Scarce and desirable. Verne's The Castle of the Carpathians centres on the story of Count Franz de Telek a visitor to the village of Werst in the Carpathian mountains of Transylvania who is inspired to visit the region after hearing that the town's villagers believe that the devil has come to inhabit its castle. The novel was likely the inspiration for Bram Stoker's Gothic horror novel Dracula published five years later in 1897 and featuring the character of Count Dracula also of Transylvania.
