Beschreibung

In good condition. Boards are typically worn with light scuffing, rubbing to corners and spine extremes. Gilt work on spine has been mostly rubbed off, but remains intact. Hippo and rhinoceros decorative gilt work remains intact. Bookplate of Virgil I. Hixson on front paste down. Text block lightly toned with minimal foxing. Free of marginalia. Binding tight and intact. No map as issued. Please see photos. First American edition with numerous illustrations. This work recounts two expeditions of Southern Africa undertaken by the author between 1850-54. Many of the areas he explored were almost unknown in Europe at the time, and his narrative is packed with descriptive imagery and sensational events, from lion attacks and swarms of locusts to local legends and witchcraft. Anderson was a Swedish explorer and amateur naturalist best known for his extensive travels of the southern region of Africa. Bestandsnummer des Verk�ufers RAREA1856AHJZ
