[NAVIGATION]. [VRIES, Klaas de, and others].
Schatkamer of konst der stuurlieden.
Holland 1735. Green paper wrappers made from a discarded prospectus or the wrapper of an instalment of a book ca. 1865 sewn at 6 stations some perhaps without supports later green cloth spine with the title in manuscript on the front wrapper. Folio 31.5 x 20.5 cm. A manuscript course in navigation written in brown ink on laid paper in a largely upright cursive hand with 6 colour figures including 2 volvelles about 100 black and white diagrams and numerous tables of data highlighted with a yellow wash. A detailed manuscript course in the art of navigation in folio format with figures in colour including two volvelles partly based on the very rare first edition in 8vo format of Klaas de Vries 1662-1730 Schat-kamer ofte konst der stier-lieden 1702; Crone 374 probably in the first issue not known to survive before the insertion of an additional quire between B and C. But the manuscript doesn't merely copy the printed book: at least much of the text differs and also at least some of the tabular data and some of the figures also have no direct equivalents in the printed book also not in later editions as far as we have seen. The colour illustrations include a compass rose 13.8 cm diameter with a ship in the centre directly copied from the folding engraved plate in De Vries and virtually the same size but the ship in the centre is copied in mirror image and De Vries's abstract floral decorations in the corners outside the circle are replaced by colour drawings of four different flowers one in each corner. The manuscript also directly copies De Vries's woodcut illustration of a human hand marked with the numbers "29" "9" and "19" on the thumb and the letters A B and C next to them presented as an aid to calculating the epact the number of days past the new moon on 1 January but the hand is rotated 180 degrees. Most of the examples of calculations use years in the period 1700-1711 though there are a few later ones one example uses the year 1809! which also largely agrees with the 1702 edition of De Vries though the examples are not identical. The clearest indication that the present manuscript follows the 1702 edition rather than a later one is that the tables giving differences between the positions of the sun and moon cover the years 1701-1704 as in the first edition before the insertion of an extra quire extending the tables to 1710 B8 was replaced at the same time not noted by Crone. All later editions we have seen give these tables and the examples of calculations for later years. Yet even in these tables the data in the present manuscript doesn't exactly agree with De Vries's. With a bookseller's ticket ca. 1901/1919. Very slightly browned with occasional minor spots or ink stains but still in good condition. The one leaf that appears to be lacking may have been deliberately cancelled by the compiler. The wrapper has a later cloth spine as noted and is somewhat worn. A fascinating manuscript course in navigation with volvelles and other figures in colour partly based on the very rare first 1702 edition of De Vries's handbook but not merely copying it.l For De Vries's 1702 handbook: Crone 374 collation not entirely correct. hardcover

Eighth edition of this early vital tool for American sea captains and navigators first published in a much shorter version of only 122 pp. in 1796 and the first edition to bear only Edmund Blunt’s name as author. The original commissioned from Captain Lawrence Furlong proved so crude and unusable that Blunt arranged for it to be edited and rewritten. Blunt’s Coast Pilots were the earliest works of their type published in North America to cover the Atlantic Coast of the U.S. with sailing directions tide tables tables of latitudes and longitudes and as this copy shows were often working evolving documents with additional manuscript annotations and printed additions including in this case the Charleston Harbour map which is not included in the binding instructions and supposedly left out of the 8th edition.

[OMAN NAVIGATION LOGBOOK]. MCKINNELL, Thomas, assistant master
Log of the proceedings. HMS "Cyclops". W. J. S. Pullen Esq. Captain. Commencing Monday 7th February 1859 ending Wednesday 22nd of May 1861. Kept by Thos. McKinnell Mast. Asst.
HMS Cyclops:: Oman Khuriya Muriya Islands Yemen Egypt Red Sea Arabian Sea Pakistan Sri Lanka and other places 1857. Contemporary brown cloth over boards rebacked in period-style black calf with the spine lettered in gold: "Log H.M.S. Cyclops". Folio 20 x 31.5 cm. Over 360 pp. of manuscript entries written with brown ink in a legible hand on watermarked laid paper with a blue cast. With 8 pen and ink nautical charts and 5 sketches of coastal sites including the city of Muscat 8 on the logbook pages and 5 on separate thick album leaves. Historically significant manuscript logbook containing a detailed record of the first attempt to lay a submarine telegraph cable to connect London with British India. The expedition took place from May 1859 the Red Sea leg from Suez to Aden to February 1860 from Aden to the Khuriya-Muriya Islands Muscat and Karachi. The two specially designed cable ships the Imperador and Imperatrix were supported by HMS Cyclops which surveyed the coastlines and reported on the depth and structure of the ocean floor.The entries from February 1859 to May 1860 documenting the ship's Red Sea and Arabian Sea mission span over 200 pages. We first find the Cyclops near Cape Ras al Hadd on the eastern coast of Oman at the entrance to the Gulf of Oman: "Cape Ras al Hadd . terminates in a low sandy spit at the head of which is a village and mud fort. There is an inlet about 4 miles to the northward of the cape but inaccessible to large vessels. There is a heavy surf on the beach during northerly winds" 9 February 1859. The ship then plied in the Red and Arabian Seas between Egypt Yemen and Oman eventually finishing in Bombay.During its expedition the Cyclops visited and moored in Quseer and Zabardag Island Egypt Suakin Sudan Perim Island Strait Bab-el-Mandeb Yemen the Hanish Islands Yemen Palinurus Shoal and Cape Fartak Yemen al-Hallaniyah and al-Qibliyah Khuriya Muriya Islands Oman Ras Madrakah and Ras al Hadd Oman Charna Island and Karachi Pakistan. The logbook entries record the soundings and the laying of cable along with quotidian ship activity. Brief entries touch on the death of crew members; discharging coal; punishing men for wrongdoing; maintenance of the ship; other ships in company; visits on board by local notables etc. Six larger entries occupying up to two pages of text describe the topography landmarks soundings and economy of Karachi Zabargad Island and Muscat Cove this last harbour said to be "formed by Muscat Island on the east and Ras Muscat on the West it is one mile deep by half a mile wide with 12 fathoms at entrance decreasing to 3 fathoms ahead of the town. It is defended by two . batteries on the island one on the height to the seat of town and two on Ras Muscat. They are all in a stay ! - or: state of decay. The entrance to the cove is difficult to make out when coming from the eastward . The exports of Muscat are wheat dried fish dates and cattle the imports being European and Indian manufactured goods sugar etc. The revenue is about £100000. The Imaum's Palace faces the water his army generally consists of from 10 to 12000 men and the fleet of 2 frigates 2 corvettes a transport and brig the greater part of the Navy having been removed to Zanzibar the Captains of these vessels being educated at Bombay or Calcutta. Supplies of all kind are cheap and plentiful. Boats may be hired thro' the medium of the Agent of the Indian Government for the shipment of coals" 26 November 1859.Illustrated with eight well-executed pen and ink nautical charts showing the routes of the Cyclops in the Red and Arabian Seas as well as the harbours of Muscat Cove and other places. Five beautiful ink sketches show the city of Muscat "Hallani Bluff from Addington Cove" al-Hallaniyah the largest of the Khuriya Muriya Islands Oman Ras Fartak Yemen Karachi harbour and Colombo.The cable too lightly armoured and laid with too little slack soon failed: indeed the 1859 section had already broken down by the time the route was completed in 1860. Messages were passed over individual sections but the entire cable never worked as a unit. Communication to India would not be established until the 1864 Persian Gulf cable was laid. The captain of the Cyclops the noted British navigator and Arctic explorer William Pullen 1813-87 took part in the unsuccessful 1849 attempt to rescue Sir John Franklin's disastrous expedition in search of a northwest passage then in the same year became the first European to sail along the north coast of Alaska in his voyage from the Bering Strait to the Mackenzie River in Canada.A final part of the log comprising some additional 150 pp. May 1860-May 1861 covers the Cyclops's survey of the southeast coast of Ceylon and her return voyage to England. Overall an important content-rich source on the early history of the submarine telegraph cable around the Arabian Peninsula to British India.In good condition. Oman, Khuriya Muriya Islands, Yemen, Egypt, Red Sea, Arabian Sea, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and other places, hardcover

ABIDIN PASHA [also DINO, BEY, PREVEZELI ABEDIN PASA, ABEDDIN BEY], (Ottoman patriot, politician, ideologue and diplomat; the governor of the Mediterranean Islands [i.e. Cezâyir-i Bahr-i Sefîd Vilâyeti] Rhodes, Algeria, Aden, Ankara and Adana),
Autograph letter / document sealed as 'vâli' [i.e. governor] 'Abidin' sent to Ottoman command of Chios Island.
Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Original autograph document/letter sealed by Abidin Pasha. 33x21 cm. In Ottoman script. 1 p. Seven lines. With a letterhead of The Province of Cezâyir-i Bahr-i Sefîd [i.e. The province of the Mediterranean Island and Aegean Archipelago]. Abidin Pasha was an Albanian patriot, politician, ideologue and diplomat; and the governor of Rhodes, Aden, Algeria, Ankara, and Adana. As a rilindas involved in the Albanian National Awakening, he was one of the founders of the League of Prizren and its chief representative for Epirus (1878). Dino was one of the main promoters in the need for the creation of the Autonomous Albanian Vilayet under the Ottoman suzerainty, and later a contributor to Albanian independence. Abedin Dino was from Chameria and he was born in Preveza on March 23, 1843, to one of the most notable and noble families of the city (the Dino family). During the Great Eastern Crisis Dino was one of ten signatories to a memorandum addressed to Berlin Congress hosts chancellor Bismarck and Count Andrassy on 20 June 1878 calling for reforms and Albanians to remain in the Ottoman state with their rights, desires, interests, and traditions being respected. Dino strongly supported the territorial integrity of Albanian inhabited lands remaining within the Ottoman state. Together with Abdul Frashëri, Vesel Dino, and Mehmet Ali Vrioni he established local League branches of the Albanian Committee of Janina and Assembly of Preveza. On 11 January 1879, a meeting in Preveza of Albanian notables and leaders at Dino's house agreed to oppose Epirus joining Greece, even though military force if an unsatisfactory agreement was imposed by the Great Powers and to express that view to the Berlin Congress. The free movement of Dino in Preveza and his appointment as a commissioner for delineating the border was representative of the support the Ottoman Empire gave to the League during this time. From 10 June - 12 September 1880 Dino briefly served as the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Ottoman Empire for four months and was elevated to the rank of Pasha, becoming known as Abedin Pasha. Abdul Hamid II appointed Dino as he wanted to strengthen the Ottoman position during negotiations about the border with Greece. [.] In part due to his efforts and activities, the Vilayet of Janina did not join Greece and remained within the Ottoman Empire until 1912. He became a wâli (governor) of Aden and from 1904 Vizier (minister) in the Ottoman government headed by fellow Albanian Avlonyali Mehmed Ferid Pasha. Abedin Bej Dino was also an evaluated poet, publisher, writer, and translator. He wrote many songs, including the famous one "Këngë për Shqipërin" (alb. "Song for Albania", in 1879), "Të nxiturit e Shqipërisë duke përpjeturë" (1880), "Poema e Shenjtë" (Poema of Saint, 1884), "Poetry" (1888). He translated on Albanian language poems of a 13th-century Persian poet, and Sufi mystic Rumi. His son, Rasih Abidinpasazâde Dino (who has a book titled 'Üç Mektup') was a co-founder of the first Albanian school in the city of Preveza and in 1913 he was the head of the delegation of Albania that signed the Treaty of London that recognized Albania an independent state. Abidin Pasha is the grandfather of famous Turkish painter Abidin Dino, (1913-1993).
