Octavo 8 3/4" x 5 1/2" issued in blue cloth with gilt lettering to spine and gilt sailing ship to front cover. Second Series volumes 152-155 and 139. First edition. Overshadowed for nearly two hundred years in European scholarship by the literary and scientific achievements and reputation of his eldest son George Forster the author of this journal J R Forster Principal naturalist on James Cook's second voyage was nevertheless recognized by many contemporaries as one of the 'universal geniuses' of the late eighteenth century. Despite Forster's diverse prodigious and sometimes brilliant output the constant circumstances of his career and personality were such that his work was dogged by debilitating disputes and vendettas with the result that those many longer more epoch-making and polished works which would have established him as the leading pioneering comparative anthropologist linguist geographer and zoologist of the Pacific and a most competent student in those disciplines of Africa North America and Europe especially Russia have remained only as obscure and seldom-used manuscripts. After Forster's death in 1798 his books and manuscripts - 'there has never been . a private library in Germany to compare with it.' wrote the royal Librarian in Berlin - were sold to the royal Library of the King of Prussia later the Prussian State Library. Among the numerous Forster 'treasurers' deposited in Berlin as his six volume journal in the Resolution. As the journal o a highly literate landsman-at-sea it offers many new typically unrestrained insights into the day-to-day relationships life and thinking and theory-testing on this the most scientific and epic of Cook's three voyages. It is also the fundament upon which George Forster wrote his classic travelogue A Voyage round the World 1777 that humane influence - in many translations - upon science and belles-lettres. It is too the key to the science and anthropology of this voyage the central document to understanding the naturalists' day-to-day work and finds. Set alongside the journals of Cook and his other principals - which it often surpasses intellectually and empirically - anthropologists ethnolinguists geographers geologists botanists zoologists especially ornithologists and medical and literary historians as well as students of James Cook and the eighteenth century mind will find much new observation and theory. For the two Forsters fashioned forces to influence Alexander von Humboldt and foretell Charles Darwin. Condition: Jackets with light edge wear spine ends rubbed else very good to fine in like jacket.

Chastellux was a military officer who served during the War of American Independence as a major general in the French expeditionary forces led by general Comte de Rochambeau. Being on general Rochambeau's staff for the duration of the war Chastellux acted as the principal liaison officer between the French commander in chief and George Washington. However the Chevalier de Chastellux was also widely recognized at the time of his campaigns in America as a highly talented man of letters and a member of the French Academy. After arriving in America in July 1780 Chastellux participated to the American Revolutionary War as Major General in the French expeditionary force led by general Rochambeau. During the following year he was third in command of the French forces engaged at the decisive Siege of Yorktown in 1781 where the British were ultimately defeated. Major General de Chastellux was fluent in English and with his strong ideological support of the American cause he served the alliance well. During the latter part of the campaign he was the principal liaison officer between George Washington and French general Rochambeau. Thereafter Chastellux remained a personal friend of George Washington for life. Furthermore the College of William and Mary and the University of Pennsylvania also awarded Chastellux with honorary degrees. After his return to France Chastellux also remained in contact with Thomas Jefferson now the American representative in Paris whom he had previously visited on his Virginia estate at Monticello.
