First French edition. Folding map. 8vo. Contemporary mottled calf, gilt tooling to spine, leather label. Hinges cracking, with repairs to corners and spine ends. Discreet contemporary bookplate to front pastedown. Occasional spotting within. 24, xxviii, 451pp. Paris, Pissot, The first French edition, taken from the third English edition, considered the best textually. The French edition is enhanced by a very handsome printing of the Carver map, showing the area of the headwaters of the Mississippi, extending north well into Canada and west as far as the Dakotas. Carver went farther west than any explorer of the Northwest before the Revolution, and although he failed in his aim to find the mythical Northwest Passage, he added considerably to geographical knowledge. He also acted as a catalyst to the later explorations of Mackenzie and Lewis and Clark, and his narrative is in many ways a starting point in the literature of western exploration. Contains ?Des langues des Indiens, & des signes hiéroglyphiques qui leur tiennent lieu d'ecriture? on pages 315-334. The text contains the first mention of the word ?Oregon.? Bradford 801.

"In 1766 Carver was employed . to explore to the west of the Great Lake in an attempt to contact the Sioux Indians. .

Zustand: Very good overall. A seldom-seen map by a British officer, one of the earliest to show "actual results of British exploration of the interior." (Wheat). It was issued with Carver's, "Travels through the Interior Parts of North-America, in the Years 1766, 1767, and 1768", considered one of the earliest and best accounts of the frontier in Minnesota and Wisconsin. "The delineation of the lower St. Peter (Minneosta) River was based on his (Carver's) visit to that region in 1766-67 as the first English-speaking explorer to push beyond the upper Mississipi River valley. The western interior, however, was copied from Bellin's map of 1755, which in turn was derived from the maps of La Verendrye. One innovation introduced by Carver is a dotted line connecting the Mandan River (the Great Bend of the Missouri River) with the imaginary "River of the West," which empties into the Pacific Ocean. This misconception led later American explorers to believe that the Pacific Ocean could be reached by a direct water route." III.i, p. 186-7, Luebke et al, "Mapping the North American Plains", Univ. of Oklahoma, 1987. The map is filled with details and notations such as "Traders go no farther than these falls" and "seldom travel this way except War Parties" and many more. The route of Carver's travels are clearly shown along the Mississippi, Fox, Minnesota and St. Pierre rivers. The map extends from Michigan, here labeled Chipeways and Ottowas Land, to above Lake Superior and west to beyond the Minnesota River. After the French and Indian War the peace settlement gave the British eastern Minnesota, opening the vast territory to their fur traders. Carver spent the winter of 1766-67 with the Sioux on the Minnesota River. He then joined Capt. James Tute's expedition as the mapmaker. Tute's plan was to cross the continent in quest of the Northwest Passage. The plan was not successful but their explorations led Carver to later publish an account of his travels. Carver is credited with traveling farther into the unknown West than any other English explorer before the Revolution. " (Old World Auctions).

unbound. Map. Engraving with original color wash. Page measures This map shows the Province of Quebec as a newly acquired English territory according to the Treaty of Paris at the end of the French Indian War. Includes four lovely trompe l'oiel insets of the Isles of Montreal, Plan of Montreal, The City of Quebec, and the Course of the St. Lawrence. This British map extends the boundaries of Quebec into New England at a key point in the beginning of the Revolution. Captain Jonathan Carver (1732-1780) was a traveler, surveyor and cartographer who made this map based on his travels for Thomas Jeffery's American Atlas. Robert Sayer (1725-1794) was an important English publisher of maps, portraits, and nautical engravings. Partnering with John Bennett around the 1760s, the two published the works of well-known cartographers such as Kitchen, Jefferys, Belling, d'Anville and others. This is the first state of this scarce map.

Five plates (four colored, including the tobacco plate that is frequently missing), two partially colored folding maps. Modern three-quarter morocco and marbled papercovered boards.

Interesting early ink notation that the book was purchased from the library of Dr. John Jeffries (the first aeronaut to pass from England to France by balloon) when the library was sold at Boston by J.L. Cunningham. An important American travel narrative, this is considered the best edition with an expanded text, a biographical sketch of the author, an index, and the added plate of the tobacco plant. Text includes the first published mention of the word "Oregon." Howes C215; Sabin 11184.

Third or Fourth American Edition, after the first of 1784, of "a classic in the history of the exploration of the Great Lakes and upper Mississippi regions."

The author was a native of Weymouth, Massachusetts, and with a commission from Major Robert Rogers set out on his travels in 1766." (Bell) "He went west by the route of the Great Lakes, crossed to the Mississippi by the Green-Bay-Fox-Wisconsin route, ascended the great river and entered the St. Peter s (now the Minnesota). He reached Lake Superior by the Chippewa and St. Croix rivers, and finally returned in the autumn of 1767 to Mackinac."
