Daraus erwuchs das vorliegende Standardwerk, "der erste Versuch einer Gesamtdarstellung der Ostalpen aus eigener Anschauung. Für Wanderer und Alpinisten bestimmt, wird die Naturlandschaft erstmals einschließlich der Höhenzone dargestellt, werden Bergfahrten und Übergänge beschrieben und landeskundliche Gegebenheiten vermerkt. Das heute auch alpinhistorisch ergiebige Werk trug wesentlich zur touristischen und alpinistischen Erschließung der Alpen bei und verbesserte die Kenntnis der alpinen Topographie entscheidend. Mit seinen Reisen und Schriften wurde Schaubach zum Pionier der Alpingeographie und des Ostalpenbergsteigens" (NDB). - Einbände berieben.

Contemporary marbled sheep, spine in compartments, roulette to head and foot, brown morocco title-piece. Triple fillet frame. Small lack at head. Wormhole to foot of upper joint, two corners rubbed. Headpieces, joints, and corners scraped. A very good, fresh copy. An important essay on the origins of the peoples of the American continent (North and South). The author uses several approaches to produce a powerful comparative study of languages (most notably those of the islands of South-East Asia, Mexico and Peru), dress and traditions. Scherer's conclusion, notably relying on Classical literature and various accounts of voyages, is that the people of the Americas had several different migratory origins, including Chinese, African and Asian tribes. North America, and especially Alaska, received several waves of migration from the Bering Strait, via Kamchatka, and from Asia. [FRENCH VERSION FOLLOWS] Édition originale, rare, illustrée de huit figures (monnaies et médailles chinoises, bouddha) et d'une grande carte dépliante de la Sibérie de la rivière Lena. Reliure en pleine basane d'époque marbrée. Dos à nerfs orné, roulette en queue et tête. Pièce de titre en maroquin havane. Triple filet d'encadrement. Un petit manque en tête. Un trou de ver au mors supérieur en queue. Deux coins émoussés. Frottements en coiffes, mors et coins. Bon exemplaire, frais. Important essai sur l'origine des populations du continent américain (nord et sud). L'auteur adopte plusieurs méthodes pour parvenir à son but : une étude comparative poussée des langues (notamment des îles du Sud-Est asiatique, du Mexique, du Pérou...), des coutumes et des traditions. Scherer en vient à conclure, notamment en se servant de la littérature antique et de divers voyages, que les populations de l'Amérique ont plusieurs origines migratoires : chinois, africaine et de tribus asiatiques. L'Amérique du Nord, et notamment l'Alaska aurait subi plusieurs flux migratoires par le détroit de Béring, via le Kamtchatka, en provenance de l'Asie.
