Un portrait de l'auteur dans un médaillon et 3 grandes cartes dépliantes, une en fin de chaque volume (60x55cm environ chaque carte) dont une avec le tracé des routes de Mackenzie en couleurs. Reliure d'attente de l'éditeur en demi basane brune. Dos lisse orné de roulettes. Pièces de titre et de tomaison chocolat. Plats de papier marbré bleu. Reliure d'attente sur brochure non rognée, à toutes marges. Restaurations diverses aux coiffes, dos, mors, et coins. Etiquette de bibliothèque en queue du tome 1 portant le numéro 540. Par ses voyages, Mackenzie est l'un des plus importants explorateurs du continent américain. Entre 1789 et 1793, Mackenzie, trafiquant de fourrures travaillant pour le compte de la puissante compagnie du Nord-Ouest, effectua 2 expéditions dans le nord-ouest américain sur plus de 6500km. Le 1er voyage conduit de Montréal au fort Chipiouyan (avant-poste de la Compagnie) et à la Mer Glaciale (lac Athabasca) en descendant la rivière St. Lawrence, le 2ème du Fort Chipiouyan jusqu'aux bords de l'Océan Pacifique sur la rivière qui portera so nom, avec des notes et un itinéraire tirés en partie des papiers du Vice-amiral Bougainville. Rencontrant de nombreuses tribus d'indiens chez lesquels il faisait halte et achetait des fourrures et s'informait sur la route à tenir, Mackenzie en donne une relation fort détaillée et intéressante. On trouvera dans le tome 1 un vocabulaire Algonquin , Knisteneaux et Chipiouyane . [ENGLISH DESCRIPTION ON DEMAND]
