Grant, George Monro (ed.).
Picturesque Canada. A Pictorial Delineation of the Beauties of Canadian Scenery and Life. London, Cassell & Co., ca. 1885.
Folio. 36 issues. 880, IX, (4), X-XIV pp. Each issue with an engraved frontispiece and numerous woodcut illustrations in the text. 2 title-pages printed in red and black. Additional woodcut title in issue II. Contemporary printed wrappers. Only edition. - Complete set of this finely illustrated survey of Canadian scenery edited by the principal of Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario, George Monro Grant (1835-1902), in the 36 original livraisons as issued, instead of being bound (as is more common) as a two-volume set. The work features landmarks of major Canadian cities, including Quebec, Montreal, Ottawa, and Toronto, as well as rural areas and impressions en-route, including a journey from Toronto to Lake Huron. From the time that Cassell began its sumptuously produced "Picturesque Europe" in 1876, the publisher issued many important topographical works. The "Picturesque" series, describing in turn Europe, the USA, Canada, the Mediterranean, and Australia, employed many famous artists, writers, and travellers, and consistently maintained a high level of illustration and production. - Red and black title-pages bound at the end of issue 36. - Partly uncut. Extremities slightly bumped, more prominently in issue I, which is also somewhat duststained. Interior crisp and clean. A good copy of this ambitious work.

8vo [24 x 16 cm]; xiv, 481 pp, frontis, illustrations including full-page, double-page maps, notes, index. original pictorial cloth, gilt spine title lettering, dj (slightly rubbed at corner, not price clipped), fine and clean, unmarked. A picture of this book is available upon request by email. The first full-length biography of Nuttall, who traveled up the Missouri with the Astoria party which was heading across the country in 1811. He left the party to collect specimens for a perilous three months in hostile Indian country. In 1818 he journeyed alone in the Southwest for two years. In 1834 he traveled with Wyeth to the Pacific.

Gray, Elizabeth Caroline Hamilton (1800-1887). Scottish historian and travel writer
THE DENSELY PENNED 2-PAGE CONCLUSION to an AUTOGRAPH LETTER SIGNED CAROLINE HAMILTON GRAY by the Scottish Historian and Travel Writer ELIZABETH CAROLINE GRAY.
19th Century. . Very good. - A densely penned 2-page conclusion to an autograph letter signed by Elizabeth Caroline Gray written on both sides of 10-5/8 inch high by 8-1/2 inch wide onionskin paper. A difficult to read letter given her handwriting and the shadow of the words penned on the verso apparently written to a friend: ".but his very countenance spoke if not of genius within at least of love & charity without. I have visited both church & school since I saw you but have no time to tell about them. I some times think I must possess a talent for dawdling ___ ___ times that my daily cross is to see my time frittered away & nothing - nothing done." Signed "Caroline Hamilton Gray" followed by a 3 line postscript. Folded twice vertically the page is mounted to cream card stock with clear document tape along the left edge. The author's name is penned in another hand upon the tape and a portion of a clipped catalog listing of one of her books is also mounted on the tape. Very good. <p>The Scottish historian and travel writer Elizabeth Caroline Hamilton Gray 1800-1887 was born in Alva Clackmannanshire. An 1837 exhibit on the history of Estrucan artifacts organized by Domenico Campanari inspired her to pursue the subject. She traveled to Italy and published "Tour to the Sepulchres of Etruria" in 1840. She faced criticism for her gender as critics of the period thought women were unsuited to write about history. In addition to her research on Etruria she went on to write about the classical and early medieval church and empire as well as children's histories of Rome.<p>RARE. [19th Century]. unknown
