BEAGLEHOLE, J. C.
On the Character of Captain James Cook.
8vo. 13 pages, plus two black and white plates for illustration. Original condition with blue wrappers, titles to front, and containing all the ads. This is a complete issue, containing other accounts as well, seldom found in such good and original condition. An earnestly disquisitive analysis of early biographies, scant surviving correspondence, and most importantly, Captain Cook's own decision making and planning processes relating to his voyages, results in a most captivating character sketch of the great navigator, Captain James Cook. The author remarks on how very little is known of his famous subject other than his name, which is known worldwide. Further describing what he terms "the irony of the Pacific story" this account is well researched and compelling.

BECCARI, Odoardo
Wanderings in the Great Forests of Borneo; Travels and Researches of a Naturalist in Sarawak
8vo [23 x 15 cm]; xxiv, 424 pp, frontis, 61 illustrations including many full-page, mostly from photos, 3 folding maps, some drawings, index. original pictorial cloth, gilt spine title lettering and gilt picture on front cover, top edge gilted, endpaper bookplate, no tears of maps, near fine and clean. A picture of this book is available upon request by email. An important book by one of the great botanical explorers and naturalists of the nineteenth century, the Italian botanist, spent time at Kew, where he met Charles Darwin, William Joseph Hooker and James Brooke, the Rajah of Sarawak. The latter lead him to spending 3 years from 1865 to 1868 undertaking research in Sarawak, Brunei and other islands off present-day Malaysia and New Guinea, where he discovered many new species of palms, and many other plants such as a phosphorescent fungus that was bright enough to read a newspaper placed by it. Beccari was in Sarawak during 1865-67 where he collected over 800 bird skins including 40 not previously discovered of unrecorded species. He describes nature, the people, Dyaks and their customs in some detail, prior to the major impacts of the twentieth century, and describes his return to Sarawak some 20 years later, where he formed a botanical garden. He discovered the titan arum, the plant with the largest unbranched inflorescence in the world, in Sumatra in 1878. This edition also contains the valuable and detailed appendix on the forests of Borneo, which are currently being logged to extinction. The preface is by naturalist F. H. H. Guillemard who also wrote a book of his travels in the area. The later reprint does not include the maps of the original.

BEEBE ROSE MARIE & SENKEWICZ ROBERT M. EDITORS
Testimonios: Early California Through The Eyes Of Women 1815-1848
University of Oklahoma Press Norman: 2015. Softcover. Brand new book. When in the early 1870s historian Hubert Howe Bancroft sent interviewers out to gather oral histories from the pre-statehood gentry of California he didn't count on one thing: the women. When the men weren't available the interviewers collected the stories of the women of the household�sometimes almost as an afterthought. These interviews were eventually archived at the University of California though many were all but forgotten. Testimonios presents thirteen women's firsthand accounts from the days when California was part of Spain and Mexico. Having lived through the gold rush and seen their country change so drastically these women understood the need to tell the full story of the people and the places that were their California. 134 black-and-white Illustrations 508 pages 6" x 9". Rose Marie Beebe is Professor of Spanish Literature at Santa Clara University. Robert M. Senkewicz is Professor of History at Santa Clara University. Together they have authored and edited numerous books including The History of Alta California Lands of Promise and Despair: Chronicles of Early California 1535-1846; Testimonios: Early California through the Eyes of Women 1815-1848; and "To Toil in That Vineyard of the Lord": Contemporary Scholarship on Junipero Serra. "A treasure many people�scholars students and armchair historians�will appreciate."�California History "An amazing work of painstaking research sensitive translation and clear writing that has given us the gift of understanding California's Mexican history in a new way."�Richard Griswold del Castillo in The Americas "Beebe and Senkewicz's combination of linguistic excellence and historical context has produced the best translations of important manuscripts from original documents recorded in provincial eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Spanish."�Reviews in American History University of Oklahoma Press, Norman: 2015 paperback
