Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: No Dust Jacket. Sixteenth Edition. This is an original 1814 printing of this famous book on river navigation. This is a smaller sized book with 360 pages including several Maps and an Appendix. This is a hardcover book with leather along the spine and corners (quarter leather binding). The binding is nice and strong and the covers are firmly attached. The covers show some general edgewear and a little bit of leather loss at the bottom of the spine (one half inch chip) but otherwise in nice shape. The pages and maps show some yellowing and some foxing with age but the paper is still strong. Important to note that the very top portion of the title page and the next page was removed (scissor cut) at some point in the past - about the upper half inch of the page is missing including the word The (the word Navigator is still there - just the word The is missing). Overall, this scarce old book is clean and solid with minimal signs of age.

(Thomson 282) (Howes C855) (Sabin 17385) A very nice example of this important guide used for travel along the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers in the early nineteenth century. "At the beginning of the 19th century, the waterways of the trans-Appalachian West were important transportation routes for emigrants, traders, and travelers. Flatboats, keelboats, and eventually steamboats carried goods and people to various destinations along the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers as well as their tributaries. River guides became standard purchases for those who traveled the western waters. One of the earliest and best-known river guides was compiled by Zadok Cramer." ("American River Guides from 1800 to 1860," AB Bookman's Weekly, July 27, 1998, p. 125) Cramer died in 1813, two years after the publication of the 7th edition of The Navigator. His wife, and eventually his daughter, took his place in the printing business, and five additional guides were published between 1814 and 1824.

("American River Guides from 1800 to 1860," AB Bookman's Weekly, July 27, 1998, p. 125) Cramer died in 1813, two years after the publication of the 7th edition of The Navigator. His wife, and eventually his daughter, took his place in the printing business, and five additional guides were published between 1814 and 1824. While significant revisions were made to the eighth edition of 1814, the last four editions saw only minor changes. Among the changes made to the 10th edition of 1818 were an updated section on Pittsburgh as well as updated entries for other river towns. In this particular copy of the 10th Navigator, someone consistently checked off the individual entries from Island No. 35 [Tipton County, Tennessee] to Bayou Sara, Louisiana. There are also occasional number notations in the right margin which appear to be mileage corrections. There's an interesting drawing on page iv, which has a large building in the center, possibly a warehouse, flanked by two smaller buildings on stilts. While not certain, this copy may have been used by a flatboatman or steamboat pilot or possibly a passenger who was traveling on the Lower Mississippi River.
