Beschreibung

Bound with Canal Interocéanique de Panama, Mission de 1890/1891 en Colombie, Rapport Général, Achille Heymann, 1891, Paris. Handsomely rebound set of Wyse's two major works on the Panama Canal, both presentation copies and signed by him. Dedication to first blank dated May 1900, presenting the volume to the Bibliotheque Francaise in Syndey, Australia. The second work is more simply signed "Hommage de l'auteur - L N Bonaparte Wyse" to half title. There is a library stamp to each title page, but no other indications of library use. Three large fold out maps and plans present as required, along with fold-out table of the various plans and schemes submitted for the canal. First map has closed tear which has been effectively, if slightly crudely, repaired to rear, and all maps are a little grubby to creases. Now attractively rebound in green quarter leather with gilt tilting to spine and marbled paper-covered boards to match endpapers. Scare signed thus. French language. 4to. [6] 401pp [4] 154pp.
