‎Edition originale (Nissen, IVB, 885 - Pritzel, 8773 - Ronsil 2802). Récit de voyage du naturaliste Pierre Sonnerat (1748-1814), qui contient, entre autres, des détails sur les Moluques et Manille et une collection botanique et zoologique qui a constitué la base de cette première publication majeure. Ouvrage orné d'un frontispice et de 118 belles planches gravées (numérotées de 2 à 120 avec 90-91 sur une seule feuille, dont 6 planches de vues gravées double page et repliées), par Martinet, Avril et Bacquoy, d'après les dessins de l'auteur, la plupart représentant des oiseaux de Nouvelle-Guinée, notamment le manchot papou, dont c'est la première description, ainsi que des espèces botaniques comme le coco de mer (ou "coco-fesse") ou la noix de muscade. "Pierre Sonnerat participa en tant que naturaliste à l'expédition de la "Flûte du Roi, de l'Isle de France et de la corvette le Nécessaire" ayant pour mission d'examiner les productions végétales et la faune des Philippines et de la Nouvelle-Guinée. Sa relation est importante pour l'histoire naturelle des régions traversées, notamment les Philippines et les Moluques. Les planches, représentant oiseaux et plantes, sont finement gravées et d'une grande exactitude. On remarque une vue des Seychelles et de l'île Coëtivy, de la Caldera, de Sambouangue, une machine pour pêcher, palmier de l'île Praslin et sa fameuse cocofesse sortie de son enveloppe…le rocou, la sapote noire, tourterelles et pigeons, cailles, gobes-mouche, martins-pêcheurs, pics, perruches, courlis, coucous, pélicans, oiseaux de paradis, promérops, manchots, le cacao, le citron, la muscade, le girofle, etc. Son livre est particulièrement remarquable par son illustration ornithologique (76 planches). Hill fait observer que la planche 106 est l'une des premières représentations du Kookaburra d'Australie décrit comme «grand martin-pêcheur de la Nouvelle-Guinée. L'auteur introduisit dans les colonies le cacao, l'arbre à pain et le manguier rapportés de ses voyages. Ses travaux lui valurent d'être admis à l'Académie des Sciences, Belles-Lettres et Arts de Lyon et élu en 1774 à l'Académie Royale des Sciences comme correspondant du botaniste Adanson". Très bel exemplaire.‎

Legatura in tela editoriale verde con titolo e logo editoriale al dorso, sovraccoperta illustrata a colori. Ottimo esemplare. Volume n. 173 della collana: Biblioteca di Cultura Storica. Continuazione de  ‘Il lago spagnolo’, monumentale storia del Pacifico che parte da Magellano, l'autore, in questo secondo libro, focalizza l'attenzione  su personaggi e  vicende che trasformano quella immensa distesa senza nome in un complesso intreccio di rapporti commerciali e strategici, teatro di aspri conflitti. Il volume si apre con l’entrata in scena degli olandesi, pronti ad assumere un ruolo trainante nelle Indie Orientali e a soppiantare i portoghesi. Contemporaneamente si assiste all’arrivo dei russi nel Pacifico, alla nascita degli imponenti traffici mercantili con la Cina, alle ripercussioni sull’oceano delle guerre europee, al dilagare dei bucanieri, agli assalti britannici all’Impero spagnolo in Sud America e nelle Filippine, a nuovi, grandi viaggi di esplorazione fino  al sorprendente ritorno di fiamma della Spagna, siglato dall’espansione dell’Impero in Cile e in California. Insomma una visione d’insieme della storia del Pacifico, inserita nel contesto generale delle vicende economiche e politiche del mondo.‎

‎Storia del Pacifico. Vol. 3: Un paradiso trovato e perduto‎

‎ill., br. Nel suo monumentale "Storia del Pacifico", Oskar Spate ha voluto ricostruire la storia di quella sconfinata distesa d'acqua che divide le Americhe, l'Oceania e l'Asia. Attraverso l'intreccio e il contributo delle fonti dell'epoca, così come della grande storiografia e dell'antropologia moderna, l'autore ci presenta le scoperte dei conquistatori europei, lo stupore verso i paradisi trovati e le loro ignote popolazioni, le mire colonizzatrici e le nuove rotte commerciali. Nel corso della sua epica ricostruzione in tre volumi - "Il lago spagnolo" (XVI-XVII sec.), "Mercanti e bucanieri" (XVII-XVIII sec.), "Un paradiso trovato e perduto" (XVIII-XIX sec.) -, il lettore prende parte alla progressiva scoperta dell'Oceano Pacifico, che fino ad allora era una distesa d'acqua senza nome, da parte di Magellano e degli altri navigatori spagnoli e portoghesi. Solo con l'arrivo degli olandesi, però, si inaugura una nuova stagione di esplorazioni, commerci e conflitti, che vede emergere il ruolo degli imperi asiatici e dei nuovi stati americani. Infine, si approda alla scoperta dell'Oceania, quale ultimo paradiso terrestre, e al definitivo e spietato affermarsi come potenze globali di Inghilterra e Francia, ma anche al ruolo fondamentale giocato da russi, giapponesi e americani. Un complesso affresco della storia del Pacifico, in un dipanarsi di avventure, vittorie e sconfitte, di eroismi e orrori, che non può non suscitare grande interesse e fascino.‎
