‎Richard Owen Cambridge (1717 1802)‎

‎An Account of the War in India between the English and the French on the Coast of Coromandel from the Year 1750 to the Year 1760. Together with A Relation of the late Remarkable Events on the Malabar Coast and Expeditions to Golconda and Surat; with the Operations of the Fleet. Illustrated with Maps Plans &c. The whole compiled from Original Papers.‎

‎xxxiii270215148xix1 pages 14 of 18 engraved plates maps many folding and index. Quarto 10 1/4" x 8 1/4" in original leather binding. First edition.<br /><br />Richard Owen Cambridge was a British poet. He was educated at Eton and at St John's College Oxford. Leaving the university without taking a degree he took up residence at Lincolns Inn in 1737. Four years later he married and went to live at his country seat of Whitminster Gloucestershire. In 1751 he removed to Twickenham where he enjoyed the society of many notable persons. Horace Walpole in his letters makes many jesting allusions to Cambridge in the character of news-monger. His chief work is the <i>Scribleriad</i> 1751 a mock epic poem the hero of which is the Martinus Scriblerus of Alexander Pope John Arbuthnot and Jonathan Swift. The poem is preceded by a dissertation on the mock heroic in which he avows Cervantes as his master. The satire shows considerable learning and was eagerly read by literary people; but it never became popular and the allusions always obscure have little interest for the present-day reader. He made a valuable contribution to history in his <i>Account of the War in India on the Coast of Coromandel from the year 1750 to 1760</i> 1761. He had intended to write a history of the rise and progress of British power in India but this enterprise went no further than this one work as he found that Robert Orme who had promised him the use of his papers contemplated the execution of a similar plan. The Works of Richard Owen Cambridge includes several pieces never before published. It contains an <i>Account of his Life and Character</i>by his Son George Owen Cambridge 1803 the Scribleriad some narrative and satirical poems and about twenty papers originally published in Edward Moore's paper The <i>World</i>. His poems are included in Alexander Chalmers' English Poets 1816.<br /><br /><b>Condition:</b><br /><br />Previous owner's name in neatly written dated 1806 on front end paper with his book plate on front past down with his library stamp.

Borba de Moraes p. 740-41 first edition. Sabin 71997 noting the Venice editions of 1778 and 1802 only. Originally published in two volumes in 1777 by Strahan and Cadell in London and Balfour in Edinburgh "to a very positive reception" ODNB; first Venice edition published in 1778. "Its success" according to the ODNB "was even more marked on the continent where it was considered Robertson's masterpiece . . . With its dramatic sweep of narrative combined with a provocative confrontation of two very different stages of civilization Spanish and Native American and a prose that was more flexible and evocative than that of his earlier books the History of America is often regarded as Robertson's most interesting original and even Romantic work. However it also shows the Eurocentric limits of his stadial thinking because it presents an unsympathetic account of Native Americans and glosses over Spanish atrocities." Borba de Moraes credits Roberston with writing the "first history of the discovery and Spanish conquest of America based on ample bibliographical information and documents in the Simancas archives. . . . The bibliography at the end of the second volume is remarkable for the time." Franklin D. Roosevelt owned the first Venice edition. N. B.

‎Robertson, Heather‎

‎Measuring Mother Earth How Joe the Kid became Tyrrell of the North‎

‎Toronto: McClelland & Stewart. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 2007. First Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. 0771075391 . Only light wear traces of previous owner's stamp on front pastedown. ; A bright solid book DJ in protective Mylar sleeve unclipped. ; B&W Illustrations; 1.3 x 9.1 x 6.1 Inches; 360 pages; A vivid entertaining portrait of the great Canadian explorer Joseph Burr Tyrrell the man who single-handedly invented the notion of the “Romance of the North”. In the 19th century exploring the Earth was as exciting and awe-inspiring an activity as space exploration was in the 20th century. And even as late as the 1880s vast expanses of Canada remained largely untrodden by Europeans. So joining the Geological Survey in 1882 was the realization of a dream for the short-sighted profoundly deaf and egotistical young Joseph Burr Tyrrell. A romantic inspired as much by Robert Louis Stevenson’s adventure novels and by Wild Bill Hickock’s exploits as by the spirited debates about evolution that informed his work Tyrrell chafed under the strictures of the survey. By the time of the Klondike gold rush in 1898 he was a bitter man resentful that the survey under George Dawson had repeatedly refused to promote him or give him any plum jobs. He quit and took up prospecting instead which brought him nothing but misery in the Yukon but handed him a fortune when gold was discovered in Kirkland Lake Ontario. His own best fan Tyrrell did finally achieve the celebrity he ached for. Decked out in a sealskin parka and moccasins while he burnished stories of his achievements Tyrrell became the prototype of the romantic hero-explorer later personified by Robert Scott of the Antarctic. He retired a multi-millionaire and died at the age of ninety-eight just six weeks before the 1957 space launch of Sputnik the first satellite to orbit the Earth. . McClelland & Stewart hardcover‎
