‎An invaluable source of information for all travelers to the Greek Archipelago, Anatolia, Armenia, and Georgia. A fine copy of the Amsterdam reprint of the Paris first edition. The leading French botanist Tournefort started out on his voyage to the Near East in the spring of 1700, accompanied by the draughtsman at the Jardin du Roy, Claude Aubriet (1651-1742), and the German physician Andreas von Gundelsheimer (1668-1715). He visited thirty-eight islands of the Greek archipelago, as well as Northern Anatolia, Pontus and Armenia, and reached Tiflis in Georgia. The text is in the form of letters which Pitton de Tournefort wrote to to the Minister of the Exterior Count de Pontchartain, who sponsored his mission. "The systematic way he organizes his information on topography, economy, administration, ethnic composition, customs and habits of everyday life shows how one can arrive at truth and knowledge through research, methodical study, classification and generalization ... He methodically narrates his visit to each island, and describes the locations as well as events that he witnessed and encounters with locals. He then continues with the islands history from ancient times to the current age, citing the corresponding myths, and comparing with the information provided by ancient coins. Subsequently, he writes on the islands administration and taxes, commerce, products and prices thereof. An entire chapter is dedicated to the Greek Church. Tournefort also writes on monasteries and churches, house architecture and caves. He also describes the customs, the dress and the occupations of the inhabitants ... He continues with his journey on the southern coast of the Black Sea to Armenia. The work closes with a short description of Smyrna and Ephesus" (Ioli Vingopoulou, in Travelogues, Aikaterini Laskaridis Foundation). The travelogue is significant for its detailed botanical inventory alone. Written and illustrated on the spot, it contains rich information on the plants of the Greek islands and Anatolia, some of which were described for the first time. "He did not live to see the publication of his travel chronicle, which in the following three centuries became the basic manual to all travellers to these regions. Until today, researchers from numerous fields turn to Tournefort's text, as it remains an invaluable source of information" (Vingopoulou).

‎Townson, Robert.‎

‎Travels in Hungary, with a Short Account of Vienna in the Year 1793. London, G. G. & J. Robinson, 1797.‎

‎4to. With folding hand-coloured engr. map, 16 engr. plates (some folding), and folding engr. table. Modern half calf with giltstamped red spine label and marbled boards. All edges marbled. First edition of "the best English work respecting Hungary" (Cox), soon translated into Dutch and French. Includes a chapter entitled "Alpine Excursions", describing the author's plant hunting activities. The chapter on Vienna, an account of which historiography has taken surprisingly little notice, deals extensively with the local gluttonous eating habits first described (and since immortalized) by Aeneas Silvius Piccolomini three and a half centuries earlier. Townson continues to describe at length the Imperial hothouses and zoo at Schönbrunn Palace. The book is also "a work valuable to the natural historian, particularly the mineralogist; it also contains a very particular account of the Tokay wines" (Lowndes). - The Surrey-born naturalist Robert Townson (1762-1827) took a year off from his studies at Göttingen, traveling to Vienna and throughout Austrian Habsburg lands. "He returned to Göttingen and published his first works, on reptilian physiology, in 1794 and 1795. He returned home in 1795 and was awarded the degree of LLD in 1796 by Edinburgh University. He settled again in Shropshire where his 'Travels in Hungary' (1797) was written. This contained pioneering botanical, entomological, and petrographic observations and spirited descriptions of his exploits, including those in the Tatra Mountains and in Slovakian caves" (ODNB). - An excellent copy in an appealing modern binding. Cox I, 168. Brunet VI, 20298. Not in Nissen (BBI) nor Simon (Bibl. Vin.) nor Simon (Bibl. Gastr.).‎
