Translated by J Castéra. Howes S-117 First French Edition. Martin Sauer was an English civil servant who knew Russian French and German. He became acquainted with Joseph Billings in St Petersburg in the 1780s. He agreed to join Billings expedition as his secretary and interpreter. It was agreed that he would write the official account but there is some controversy about his actives when he returned to St Petersburg in 1794. It has been suggested that he left hurriedly for England with much of the important archival material from the voyage including diaries and secret reports so that he could publish a record of the expedition before Russian authorities and scholars in the Academy of Sciences could review its details. Sauer's An account of the Geographical and Astronomical Expedition to the Northern Parts of Russia was published in London in 1802. It contains an abundance of detail about eastern Siberia and the Aleutian Islands and records the expeditions visits to Kodiak Island Prince William Sound and the coast south as far as Yakutat Bay. The chart was made by Aaron Arrowsmith from Sauer's notes and Billings observations and the whole complements well the other contemporary accounts of the expedition by the cartographer Gavriil Sarychev and the naturalist Carl Heinrich Merck. Aaron Arrowsmith 1750–1823 was an English cartographer engraver and publisher and founding member of the Arrowsmith family of geographers. He moved to Soho Square London from Winston County Durham when about twenty years of age and was employed by John Cary the engraver and William Faden. He became Hydrographer to the Prince of Wales ca. 1810 and subsequently to the King in 1820. In January 1790 he made himself famous by his large chart of the world on Mercator projection. Four years later he published another large map of the world on the globular projection with a companion volume of explanation. Condition: Some rubbing and wear to coves of both atlas and text volumes some chipping to spine ends small gouge at back of atlas and stamp to front end paper else in very good condition.

1699réf. P1-3K-1Amsterdam, Paul Marret, 1699. 2 tomes en 2 volumes in-12 (160x100mm) de 349 pp et 358 pp., reliure d'époque XVIIIe, demi-veau brun granité, dos à nerfs ornés de fers dorés, pièce de titres. Rare édition originale illustrée de 2 frontispices, 2 pl. hors-texte et 9 planches dépliantes hors-texte gravées dont 3 cartes. François Bernier (1620-1688), médecin et philosophe, disciple de Pierre Gassendi, occupe une place particulière parmi les Européens qui font le voyage vers la Perse et l’Inde au milieu du XVIIe siècle. Ni marchand ni missionnaire, ni militaire ni diplomate, François Bernier voyage par "désir de voir le monde". Et c’est presque par hasard qu’il débarque à Sourate, alors premier port de la côte occidentale de l’Inde, fin 1658 ou début 1659. Bernier va séjourner presque dix ans en Inde où, engagé comme médecin auprès d’un haut fonctionnaire de la cour moghole, il devient un témoin privilégié de la vie politique indienne. Bernier explore une partie du sous-continent indien ; quittant Delhi et Agra il descend le Gange jusqu’à son delta, visite Golconde et le Cachemire. Esprit curieux et critique, il observe avec attention, s’informe et ausculte les pratiques politiques, sociales et religieuses de la société indienne de cette époque. Il est joint une lettre imprimée de Madame de Lenclos à Monsieur de St Evremond, avec la réponse de ce dernier ou il relate une piquante anecdote lors de sa rencontre avec Bernier en le surnommant le "Joli philosophe", surnom qui devait d'ailleurs lui rester. Bon exemplaire.
