Best.-Nr. 202912 page TLS describing in great detail the difficulties in setting up a mining operation in New Guinea. The author H. Edward Clayton is attempting to set up an aerial tramway to transport the ore. It is 3 1/2 miles long and passes over very rough country - the difficulty in hauling the cable is palpable. Clearly having been engaged in mining in other parts of the world before he speaks of Papua NG as "the worst country I've struck in getting anything started up" with no facilities the necessity of setting up your own company mess where as in the past "anywhere else a bording sic house keeper will light along and start up a show even if it does a bit of sly grog as well". He blames the "Navigation Act" which he calls "a curse on this country". "We have Dutch and Japanese boats passing within a hundred miles and the only ones allowed to call here are the little island boats of B.P's; the work is too much for them and the result is high fares and feights sic and infrequent service." Several other people are mentioned. There is a reference to "Bill Horsburgh" who is the assayer on this mine married with three children one of them was hospitalized for rheumatic fever in Port Moresby. "Bill has changed a good deal- as quiet as can be until he has a few in and the crust cracks." This could be a reference to William Horsburgh born in Queensland and married to Frances Stella Clayton. W.W. Horsburgh was an assayer and worked with the Dubuna and Laloki Mines of the New Guinea Copper Mines until at least 1927. It's possible that the author of the letter is related in some way to Horsburgh's wife. Clayton also asks after a George Osborne. We presume that the Laloki Mine is part of the Astrolabe mineral field near Port Moresby a massive copper mine that ran from 1907 to 1926 at the Laloki and Dubuna Mines and transported by light rail and aerial ropeway to a smelter near the Tahira Inlet wharf.

Bella legatura coeva in tutta pelle rosse con titolo, filetti, fregi e nome dell'antico collezzionista (un Marchese) impressi in oro al dorso. Piatti foderati con carta marmorizzata coeva. Seconda non comune edizione, in perfette condizioni di conservazione, di questo importante resoconto africano. D'Ollone (1868-1945) fu un celebre ufficiale militare francese. Capitano di fanteria, fu inviato a condurre una missione esplorativa nell'Africa occidentale tra il 1898 ed il 1900, missione che è proprio ripercorsa in questo volume. Pochi anni dopo D'Ollone, guidò anche una missione scientifica in Cina (1906-1909). Fu nominato generale di brigata nel 1919, e si distinse come ufficiale dalle grandi doti durante il primo conflitto mondiale tanto da ottenere la Legion d'Onore francese nel 1933. L'opera ricostruisce la flora, la fauna, i paesaggi ed i costumi delle popolazioni locali incontrate. Esempalre in seconda edizione ed in perfette condizioni di conservazione, in bella legatura coeva. Provenienza nobiliare. Very good copy, second edition, rare.

1749Best.-Nr. 166191749 À Paris, chez Didot, 1749. Réédition en petit format de ce volume paru chez le même éditeur au format in-4 en 1747. Comprenant 13 gravures hors texte et un bandeau. Cette édition diffère de l'originale par le choix des illustrations, les 11 cartes de la première édition étant remplacées ici par 12 gravures de la faune africaine. Seule la gravure intitulée "Circoncision des Nègres" est commune aux deux éditions. In-12 de 486 pp., 10 x 17 cm., avec un lexique français-jalof-fouli (pp. 101-118). Reliure plein veau marbré, dos à nerfs orné de motifs "à la toile d'araignée", pièce de titre bordeaux, toutes tranches rouges. Entre 1746 et 1759, labbé Prévost publie l'"Histoire générale des voyages", un ensemble imposant à partir dune compilation anglaise de John Green, "A new general collection of voyages and travels". Prévost fait plus qu'une simple traduction : il harmonise, réajuste, ajoute dautres chroniques de voyageurs et des liens historiques, supprime des passages, fait refaire les cartes et les gravures. Il abandonne au quinzième volume. Dautres prendront sa succession, le vingtième et dernier tome paraissant seulement en 1802. Grand succès auprès de ses contemporains, cette entreprise qui participe de leffort commercial et colonial de la France est également très soutenue par le pouvoir royal. Dos un peu craquelé, coiffe supérieure et coins émoussés. Intérieur très frais et exempt de rousseurs. Bel exemplaire, malgré les défauts signalés.
