CASSINI Giovanni Maria (1745 - 1824)
L'Isola O-Taiti scoperta dal Cap. Cook. Con le Marchesi di Mendoza
- EDIZIONE ORIGINALE, COLORITURA COEVA -Decorativa mappa tratta dal "Nuovo Atlante Geografico Universale delineato sulle ultime osservazioni", edito a Roma dal 1792 fino al 1801, opera che la Calcografia Camerale commissionò al Cassini al fine di sostituire l’ormai obsoleto "Mercurio Geografico".Giovanni Maria Cassini, Chierico Regolare Somasco fu geografo e cartografo, ma anche intagliatore di architetture e prospettive - uno dei migliori discepoli di Giovanni Battista Piranesi - Cassini fu uno degli ultimi sferografi italiani del Settecento ed i suoi globi ebbero una notevole diffusione, come pure questo "Nuovo Atlante Geografico".Incisione in rame, coloritura coeva dei contorni, leggere bruniture, per il resto in ottimo stato di conservazione.L'Atlante del Cassini fu ristampato dalla Calcografia Camerale nel primo quarto del XIX secolo, prima del 1839. Solo gli esemplari di prima edizione come questo sono stampati su carta vergata coeva e sono colorati a mano in epoca. Le tirature del XIX secolo sono già su carta meccanica, priva di vergelle, e generalmente in bianco e nero. FIRST EDITION, CONTEMPORARY OUTLINE COLOUR -The Italian painter and engraver, Giovanni Maria Cassini, produced this decorative map of Tahiti and Moorea, with the Marquesas shown in an inset. The map is filled with native names for regions on the island, with information taken from Captain Cook's explorations of the islands. A peaceful landscape scene with natives lounging on the shore accents the cartouche. Published in: Nuovo atlante geografico universale delineato sulle ultime osservazioni. Roma, Calcografia camerale, 1792-1801.Cassini was geographer and cartographer but he was also good at engraving architectural items and perspectives – he was one of the best disciples Giovanni Battista Piranesi had. Moreover, Cassini was one of the last artists to engrave spheres in the XVIII century and his globes were quite famous and widespread, and realized the most important Italian Atlas of the XVIII century; his maps always bear a cartouche, extremely rich in colours and details. Copperplate with fine original hand colour, some foxing, otherwise in very good condition.

CASSINI Giovanni Maria (1745 - 1824)
Le Isole degli Amici delineate sulle ultime osservazioni del Cap. Cook
- EDIZIONE ORIGINALE, COLORITURA COEVA -Decorativa mappa dell'arcipelago Tonga tratta dal "Nuovo Atlante Geografico Universale delineato sulle ultime osservazioni", edito a Roma dal 1792 fino al 1801, opera che la Calcografia Camerale commissionò al Cassini al fine di sostituire l’ormai obsoleto "Mercurio Geografico".I primi ad approdare alle isole Tonga furono J. Lemaire e W. C. Schouten, ai quali questo gruppo di isole non si presentò ospitale, per il carattere degli abitanti (1616). Migliore accoglienza incontrarono nel 1643 Abel Tasman, che toccò il solo gruppo meridionale, e Samuel Wallis nel 1767. Il Cook, che vi approdò nel 1773, vi si trovò tanto bene, che le chiamò "Le isole degli Amici" (Friendly Islands); quando vi tornò nel 1777 vi indugiò quasi due mesi, mantenendo sempre ottimi rapporti con quegli abitanti. Le isole settentrionali furono scoperte nel 1781 dallo spagnolo F. A. Mourelle.Giovanni Maria Cassini, Chierico Regolare Somasco fu geografo e cartografo, ma anche intagliatore di architetture e prospettive - uno dei migliori discepoli di Giovanni Battista Piranesi - Cassini fu uno degli ultimi sferografi italiani del Settecento ed i suoi globi ebbero una notevole diffusione, come pure questo "Nuovo Atlante Geografico".Incisione in rame, coloritura coeva dei contorni, leggere bruniture, per il resto in ottimo stato di conservazione. FIRST EDITION, CONTEMPORARY OUTLINE COLOUR -The Italian painter and engraver, Giovanni Maria Cassini, produced this attractive map of the Tonga Islands, with Cook's tracks decoratively traced between them. Tonga became known as the Friendly Islands because of the hospitable reception given to Captain James Cook on his first visit in 1773.Published in: Nuovo atlante geografico universale delineato sulle ultime osservazioni.

CASSINI Giovanni Maria (1745 - 1824)
Le Isole della Società e di Noel delineata sulle ultime osservazioni del Capitan Cook
- EDIZIONE ORIGINALE, COLORITURA COEVA -Decorativa mappa dell'arcipelago Tonga tratta dal "Nuovo Atlante Geografico Universale delineato sulle ultime osservazioni", edito a Roma dal 1792 fino al 1801, opera che la Calcografia Camerale commissionò al Cassini al fine di sostituire l’ormai obsoleto "Mercurio Geografico".L'arcipelago è costituito da due distinti gruppi di isolette vulcaniche: quello delle Isole Sopravento (o del Vento), a Sud, che include Tahiti, Moorea, Maiao, Mehetia, Tetiaroa; quello delle Sottovento, a Nord, che comprende Raiatea, Huahine, Bora-Bora, Maupiti, Tahaa, e gli atolli Scilly e Bellingshausen. Già scoperte nel 1607 da P. Fernandes Queirós, furono riscoperte da S. Wallis nel 1767 e chiamate Isole della Società da J. Cook nel 1769, in onore della Royal Society.L'Isola di Natale deve il suo nome al capitano inglese William Mynors, che avvistò l'isola nel Natale del 1643 a bordo della nave Royal Mary.Giovanni Maria Cassini, Chierico Regolare Somasco fu geografo e cartografo, ma anche intagliatore di architetture e prospettive - uno dei migliori discepoli di Giovanni Battista Piranesi - Cassini fu uno degli ultimi sferografi italiani del Settecento ed i suoi globi ebbero una notevole diffusione, come pure questo "Nuovo Atlante Geografico".Incisione in rame, coloritura coeva dei contorni, leggere bruniture, per il resto in ottimo stato di conservazione. FIRST EDITION, CONTEMPORARY OUTLINE COLOUR -The Italian painter and engraver, Giovanni Maria Cassini, produced this attractive map of the Tonga Islands and Christmas Island.The Society Islands are a group of islands located in the Pacific Ocean and part of French Polynesia. It includes Bora Bora, Tahiti, Moorea, Taha'a and Huahine. The archipelago is suspected to have been named by Captain James Cook supposedly in honour of the Royal Society, the sponsor of the first British scientific survey of the islands; however, Cook himself stated in his journal that he called the islands Society "as they lay contiguous to one another."Christmas Island was first discovered on in 1615 by Captain John Milward of the East India Company ship, and it was named Christmas Island on 25 December 1643.Cassini was geographer and cartographer but he was also good at engraving architectural items and perspectives – he was one of the best disciples Giovanni Battista Piranesi had. Moreover, Cassini was one of the last artists to engrave spheres in the XVIII century and his globes were quite famous and widespread, and realized the most important Italian Atlas of the XVIII century; his maps always bear a cartouche, extremely rich in colours and details.

CASTERLINE BOWEN MARGARET & GWENDOLYN JOSLIN HILES
Jersey Gold: The Newark Overland Company's Trek To California 1849
University of Oklahoma Press Norman: 2017. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. When gold fever struck in 1849 John S. Darcy�prominent physician general and president of the New Jersey Railroad�assembled a company to travel overland to California. In Jersey Gold Margaret Casterline Bowen and Gwendolyn Joslin Hiles tell the story of that colorful company of some thirty stalwarts and adventurers. Jersey Gold chronicles the experiences of the New Jersey argonauts from their lives before the gold rush to the widely varying fortunes each ultimately found. Animated by the trekkers' own words and observations and illustrated with maps photographs and drawings by one of the company's own men Jersey Gold follows the Newark Overland Company's journey by rail stage and riverboat to the Missouri frontier town of Independence the group's jumping-off point for the Oregon-California trail. There the company splintered. Their divergent paths afford views of the westward journey from multiple perspectives as the companies faced the perils of the wilderness and the treachery of human nature. Once in gold country many booked immediate passage home but some remained with Darcy to work a successful mining operation before returning east with comfortable fortunes. A few enchanted by the opportunities of the Golden Coast took up permanent residence there�and in their stories we witness the emergence of California amid unprecedented lawlessness the controversy of slavery and diverse nationalities. The story of the Newark Overland Company�in many ways a panorama of the nineteenth century�tells of fortune scandal and heartbreak from the wildness of the frontier through the chaos of the Civil War to the throes of early industrialization and features such notables as John Sutter Brigham Young and Henry Clay. In chronicling this journey Jersey Gold vividly re-creates a defining chapter in American history. 36 black-and-white Illustrations 4 maps 384 pages 6" x 9". Margaret Casterline Bowen a former IT manager and consultant for the U.S. House of Representatives and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention resides in Jefferson Maryland. Gwendolyn Joslin Hiles earned a degree in American Studies from Bowling Green State University. Following some time as a teacher she has pursued a career in publishing working as an editorial manager in trade publishing. "Good historians are good detectives. Trail buffs have long relied on excellent diarists�Charles Glass Gray Alexander Cartwright Robert Bond Cyrus Currier�and a scholar Thomas D. Clark to understand the 1849 adventures of the Newark Overland Company. Ace detectives Margaret Casterline Bowen and Gwendolyn Joslin Hiles have utilized new voices of men and women to tell firsthand how they found their lives transformed on the trails. Jersey Gold is a new trail classic." -- Will Bagley author of South Pass: Gateway to a Continent University of Oklahoma Press, Norman: 2017 hardcover
