1802réf. 9900015583London: T. Cadell and W. Davies 1802. Hardcover. frontispiece folding maps. 8vo. Uniformly bound in full speckled calf. Besides the frontispiece vol. I contains a very nice folding map measuring about 17' square dated 1781 and showing the 'Eastern Part of the Roman Empire' designed by Thomas Kitchin. Vol. II contains an equally nice although smaller folding map also by Kitchin and dated 1781 showing 'Parts of Europe and Asia adjacent to Constantinople'. Vol. XII contains a comprehensive General Index to the work. This is a most attractive set internally each volume is in very good condition being tight clean and little soiled by age Internally with little age-toning or foxing and no markings or scribblings. However the bindings are in a less than desirable state. It may be taken that the binding of each volume has some defect whether split joints or tape remains. Altogether this is an ideal candidate to be re-bound by the new owner who would otherwise have just cause to be proud of this fine work.

1853réf. 5904Exploration of the Valley of the Amazon Made under Direction of the Navy Department William Lewis Herndon and Lardner Gibbon Published by A.O.P. Nicholson Washington D.C. 1853 1854. Part I by Lieut. Herndon. Part II by Lieut. Lardner Gibbon. U.S. Congress 32nd and 33rd Congress Session. Two volumes and two cased map sets. Volume 1 By Lieut. Herndon. 417pp. with 16 tinted lithographed plates 2 appendices. Part II by Lt. Lardner Gibbon. x. 339pp. with 36 lithographed plates. Maps Part 1 Herndon: 3 colour folding maps. Maps Part 2 Gibbon: 2 colour folding maps. New pockets to Herndon's map case with inked names of maps to front of pocket. Maps are in very good condition; Herndon's maps are backed with light protective coating; light foxing to Gibbon's maps primarily near margins. Volumes are in very good condition; light foxing; a loosened signature in Volume 2. Moderate wear to boards and sun fading to spine of Volume 2. Herndon was appointed to lead the first American naval expedition to explore the Amazon River valley and its tributaries between 1851-2. The expedition combined scientific observation on geography natural history and Aboriginal populations along with commercial assessments as directed by the Navy and Congress. Herndon divided the expedition into two groups: he appointed Lt. Lardner Gibbon to explore the tributaries while he would explore the Amazon River from source to mouth. Herndon's narrative provided an intimate portrait of an exotic land before the outside world rushed in. His report "so far surpassed his superiors' expectations that instead of printing the obligatory few hundred copies for Congress the secretary of the Navy ordered 10000 copies in the first print run; three months later he ordered 20000 more."

réf. PJH47947Lund Humphries 2005. Near Fine in publishers cloth in like dustjacket. Illustrated throughout. 1st edition 1st issue. William Roberts was a key player in the development of Cubism in England before the First World War and the longest surviving member of Wyndham Lewis' Vorticist movement. When he died in 1980 however he was unfairly thought of as an artist whose avant-garde heyday beggared his subsequent career. William Roberts: An English Cubist looks for the first time at the whole range of Roberts' work and asserts his true status as a major contributor to the art of the twentieth century. Roberts was unique in as much as he was the only English artist of his generation who succeeded in manufacturing a mature style in which was preserved something of the aesthetic of Cubism. Moreover during the course of a long career he employed this style to describe a vast array of mostly metropolitan subject-matter and in doing so constructed an unparalleled panorama of modern life in England. His range was immense. As an official war artist for both the Canadians and the British Roberts produced two of the most meaningful images of the First World War. Adept at portraiture he not only painted an extraordinary lifelong series of himself and his family but tackled a number of the most famous personalities of his age including Maynard Keynes and T. E. Lawrence. No other twentieth-century British artist focused on the eccentricities of London life with such perspicacity and wit. William Roberts' life was one of artistic and practical struggle not helped by an intransigent and latterly hermetic personality. Widely illustrated with reproductions of his work William Roberts: An English Cubist offers a fuller understanding of the life and work of this major British artist.
