POWELL, Wilfred.
Observations on New Britain and Neighbouring Islands, During Six Years' Exploration.
14 pages, plus a fold-out map, measuring 8.5 x 14 inches (22 x 36cm). Original condition with blue wrappers, titles to front, and containing all the ads. Minor unobtrusive foxing to bottom margin of the map, otherwise this is a complete issue, seldom found in such good and original condition. A most exciting narrative in which the author discusses possible origin of the island's inhabitants, recounts evidence of cannibalism - communicated to him by a local tribesman and bartering with a tomahawk-bearing native. He further speculates on the reasons for deserted villages, and describes coconut groves, volcanic features, and a devastating eruption in 1878. A captivating report of an expedition to Papua New Guinea, the Duke of York Islands, and some of the lesser islands, accompanied by a fold-out map of the north-east portion of New Britain.

ATTENZIONE !!: Con il termine estratto (o stralcio) intendiamo riferirci ad un fascicolo contenente un articolo di rivista, sia che esso sia stato stampato a parte utilizzando la stessa composizione sia che provenga direttamente da una rivista. Le pagine sono indicate come "da/a", ad esempio: 229/231 significa che il testo è composto da tre pagine. Quando la rivista di provenienza non viene indicata é perchè ci è sconosciuta. - !! ATTENTION !!: : NOT A BOOK : “estratto” or “stralcio” means simply a few pages, original nonetheless, printed in a magazine. Pages are indicated as in "from” “to", for example: 229/231 means the text comprises three pages (229, 230 and 231). If the magazine that contained the pages is not mentioned, it is because it is unknown to us.
