Kingston, WHG W H G
Lusitanian Sketches of the Pen and Pencil Vol. II only
London: John W. Parker 1845 Book. Illus. by The Author. Good Plus. Hardcover. First No Additional printings. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Original blindstamped red cloth on boards. Volume II only of a two-volume set. No writing. Mild hand soil to cover and faint foxing spots to endpapers. In internet reviews Kingston is rebuked for stating "eight knots an hour" when a knot is a sea mile per hour making Kingston's reference to time redundant. In another the comment is made that Kingston referred offhand to the prevalence of illegitimacy in this travelogue through northern Portugal. Only in 1851 did Kingston publish the first of the adventure stories for boys that made him famous. Volume II has 364 pp. John W. Parker hardcover

Klaproth, Heinrich Julius von.
Mémoires relatifs a l’Asie, contenant des recherches historiques, géographiques et philologiques sur les peuples de l’Orient. Paris, Dondey-Dupré père & fils, 1824-1828.
8vo. 3 vols. (8), 478, (2) pp. (8), 432, (4) pp. (8), 520 pp. With a total of 9 engraved plates (3 folding), 5 (instead of 6) folding engraved maps (1 repeated), and a 2-part table. Contemporary full French mottled calf with gilt cover borders and leading edges; spines prettily gilt. Marbled endpapers. Top edge gilt, remaining edges red. First edition of this important collection of treatises and essays, one of the author's most sought-after works. The first volume appeared separately in 1824; the three-volume set to which the collection was subsequently expanded usually contains the first volume in the 1826 re-issue only. Several of the treatises make use of Middle Eastern sources or discuss the languages of the region. - Very early in life, Klaproth (1783-1835) devoted his energies to the study of Asiatic languages, publishing his "Asiatisches Magazin" in 1802. He was appointed to the academy in St. Petersburg, and in 1805 he was a member of Count Golovkin's embassy to China. On his return he was despatched by the academy to the Caucasus on an ethnographical and linguistic exploration (1807-08) and was afterwards employed for several years in connection with the academy's Oriental publications. In 1815 he settled in Paris, where in 1816 Humboldt helped procure him the title and salary of professor of Asiatic languages and literature from the king of Prussia, with permission to remain in Paris as long as was requisite for the publication of his works. - Apparently lacking a map in volume 2. The folding map of the Potocki Archipelago is found in both the first and the second volumes. A good, clean set in contemporary bindings, the spines bearing the crowned monogram MED. Provenance: from the collection of Roberto Gulbenkian (1923-2009). A rare work; only three other copies in auction records of the last three decades. Cordier Sinica I, 68. Lust 91. Morrison II, 139. Howgego II, p. 326, K15. Henze III, 41.

Kleemann (1736-1801) gives a detailed account of his travels from Vienna to Crimea, on to Constantinople, Izmir (Smyrna) and Trieste until reaching his destination, Kiliya (Kilianova) in the Ukraine, then an important merchants' city in the Danube delta. The plates include views of Kiliya, Kavschan and Caffa, while also depicting the Iron Gates, the Dardanelles and the seraglio in Bakhchysarai. The principal part of the volume is dedicated to descriptions of the places visited en route, providing insights into the everyday life of an 18th century traveller. In the appendix, the author discusses the type of government in Tartary, the relations between the nobility and the Khans in Crimea, nutrition, jurisdiction, religion and economy, concluding with information on Turkish measurements, weights and currency. The final pages contain a translation of the first page of the firman issued for Kleemann, allowing him to travel without let or hindrance and waiving all tolls. - Paper slightly brownstained, otherwise well preserved.
