Description:
1637. Prima edizione del 1637 di questo trattato di diritto marittimo dello storiografo, filologo e pensatore politico danese Joannes Isaac Pontanus (1571-1639), discepolo dell'astronomo Thyco Brahe. Pontano si trasferì prima in Francia poi in Olanda dove percepì il clima politica culturale che portò all'elaborazione delle teorie di diritto internazionale espresse in quest'opera, una vivace confutazione delle teorie sul mare chiuso di John Selden. In appendice il testo dedicato alla navigazione "De Ophyra" di Gaspar Barreiros (m. 1574) e "Problemata nautica" di Bartholomaus Keckermann (1573-1609). Alcune incisioni all'interno. Timbro al verso del frontespizio di biblioteca tedesca privata "Bibliothek Mecklenburgh Ritter Landschaft". In ottime condizioni e completo. Copertina in piena pergamena coeva con titolo manoscritto al dorso in ottime condizioni generali con lievi usure ai margini e dorso. Legatura in buone condizioni.…

Description:
The binding is in excellent condition. The text block is excellent - solid, unmarked, with no foxing. All text pages and colour plates in very good condition. A light library reference mark is on the spine. The front flyleaf has library stamps and a roughly horizonal tear more than half way across. See my many photographs.
Fisher made enormous contributions to the mathematics of statistics. He was also convinced that Darwin's theory of evolution by the accumulation of small changes over eons was correct. In the first part of this book he shows that Bateson's idea of speciation by large genetic jumps is hugely improbable.
A mathematical milestone in the study of genetics and a classic in evolution theory.

Description:
1876 1ed Abner Doubleday Civil War Gettysburg Reminiscences Fort Sumter MoultrieAbner Doubleday was a 19th-century American Army officer known for his role in the Civil War, especially the Battle of Gettysburg. Following his military career, Doubleday wrote autobiographical sketches of his experiences in battle, including "Reminiscences of Forts Sumter and Moultrie". As captain at Fort Sumter, Doubleday made pivotal decisions that helped direct Union forces of the Confederacy.
Per Nevins of this work,
"This charming story, by a then-captain of artillery inside the two forts, is a memoir of merit because of the aura of its immediacy and intimacy."

Description:
1817 Voyages of Tavernier PERSIA Tonkin Vietnam Constantinople Atlas MAP of ASIAIn the first part of the 19th-century, stories and tales of famous voyages were popular throughout the western world – tales of Captain Cook, Columbus, African voyages, and the East India Company occupied readers from all over. Perhaps the best source of these accounts was 'Bibliotheque Portative des Voyages' – an enormous collection of voyage and exploration accounts.
This atlas tome from the 1817 first edition contains views of the voyages of Jean-Baptiste Tavernier, an important 17th-century voyager to Persia and India. This tome describes Tavernier's time in Constantinople and Tonkin (Vietnam), noting the customs, costumes, and traditions of the people.
It should be mentioned that his volume contains 23 impressive illustrations including a full map of Asia, city view of Constantinople, a portrait of Tavernier, Tonkin funeral processions, and even an engraving of a venomous King cobra!

1852 UTAH 1ed Expedition Valley Great Salt Lake Mormon Geography OVERLAND TRAIL"An Expedition to the Valley of the Great Salt Lake of Utah" is a comprehensive report by Howard Stansbury detailing his two-year survey expedition of the Great Salt Lake in Utah, starting in 1849. Ordered by Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, the mission was to evaluate emigration trails, scout possible locations for a transcontinental railroad, and study the region's geography, natural history, and mineral composition. Despite initial challenges, Stansbury's team made significant explorations and collected extensive scientific data, even discovering a more direct route through the Rocky Mountains. The expedition also described the Mormon community's domestic relations. The report emphasized the region's hidden agricultural and mineral wealth, suggesting its potential for future development.

And will the ice ages return, covering the continents with glaciers as they did twenty thousand years ago?
