32 Seiten, moderner Ppbd., 20,5 x 14 cm. Französische Ausgabe des Berichts des Franko-Kanadiers Mathieu Sagean über eine Reise in die Gebiete westlich des Mississippi im ausgehenden 17. Jahrhundert. - "Sagean was a Frenchman, possessed of considerable zeal and ambition, to rival La Salle, but so ignorant as to be unable to write, and scarcely to read his own language. He had doubtless visited some nations of Indians, living on the eastern tributaries of the Mississippi, but he was looked upon as an impostor, when he asserted that he had found a nation of cannibals on the Missouri, whose country abounded in gold mines. The late discoveries in Nevada and New Mexico, give a greater air of probability to his story" (Indian Bibliography, 1873, 344). Sabin 18, 74898. - [= Shea's Jesuit Relations 18]. "Mr. John Gilmary [sic] Shea, of New York, to whom we owe these excellent contributions to our literature, has printed a series extending to twenty-three Relations. The edition of each work was limited to one hundred copies, which have been so sought after that it is very difficult to obtain a complete set. In Europe the estimation of the Relations, and of Mr. Shea's series of Indian Linguistics, is much greater than in this country" (Indian Bibliography, 1873, 33). - Sehr saubere Papierreparaturen im Steg; innen teils minimal fleckig; wohlerhaltenes Exemplar. --- Very neat, though unassuming new binding; some clean repairs to the center margins; some very minor foxing to the margings, otherwise excellent copy.…

Scarce, with no copies for sale in RBH since 1970 (but 29 entries before that). Sabin notes: "Forms No. XVII. of Shea's Cramoisy Series. A few copies were printed on large paper. "Father Hennepin had among his contemporaries two rivals in the fabrication of new discoveries. The first was the noted La Hontan, whose book, like his own, had a wide circulation and proved a great success. . Mathiew Sâgean is a personage less known than Hennepin or La Hontan; for, though he surpassed them both in fertility of invention, he was illiterate, and never made a book. In 1701, being then a soldier in a company of marines at Brest, he revealed a secret which he declared that he had locked within his breast for twenty years, having been unwilling to impart it to the Dutch and English, in whose service he had been during the whole period. His story was written down from his dictation, and sent to the minister Ponchartrain. It is preserved in the Bibliothèque Nationale, and in 1863 it was printed by Mr. Shea."---PARKMAN'S La Salle and the Discovery of the Great West, pp. 458--461, where a summary of the relation is given. An English version is in the "Historical Magazine," vol. x. (1866), pp. 65--71. In the British Museum (Grenville collection (is the following: "The original Manuscript account of the Kingdom of Aacaniba, given by the Affidavit of M. Sagean, who with his Companions were the first Europeans in that Country, which, tho' hitherto unknown to all Geographers; yet on the faith of that relation, the late Regent of France erected the Mississippi, now the French East-India Company. But as that manuscript was never before published, which relates as facts, matters very singular, it is Englished by Quin Mackenzie, who, that he may not seem to have exaggerated its original, adjoins an authentic duplicate therefo. London, 1755. Fol."" (Sabin 74898).…
