New York/Paris/Riga/Harbin: Alatas, 1925. Softcover. Unnumbered copy of a limited first edition of 1000 published; 9 x 7 1/4; vol. II pp. 206, vol. III pp. 190, vol. IV pp. 126, vol. V pp. 208, vol. VI pp. 196; illustrated wraps; two of the volumes with closed cuts and some loss of paper to tips of spine; most pages unopened; deckled edges; good to very good condition. Georgii Dmitrievich Grebenshchikov (1882 - 1964) was a Russian author, born in the Altai region of Siberia. In 1910 and 1911 he was a member of several ethnographic expeditions to the Uba and Bukhtarna valleys of the Altai and documented the customs and everyday life of the Starovery (Old Believers) community - a sect of recluse, Orthodox sectarians. He fled Russia with his wife in 1920, first to Paris, and later, in 1924, to the US. In 1925 he would cofound with Leo Tolstoy's son Ilia Tolstoy the Churaevka community for Russian emigre writers in Southbury, Connecticut. From 1941 to 1952, he was a professor of Russian literature and history at Florida Southern College. Grebenshchikov began writing his masterpiece, the epic novel Churaevy, in 1916 during his Siberia years, but it was not published until ca 1925 under the Alatas imprint (a publishing house he headed). Seven volumes were released during the author's lifetime, and unfinished manuscripts and notes for volumes 8 and 9 were left after his death. It has been said that Grebenshchikov gave Vasil Churaev, the main character, many of his own traits and characteristics.

Description
Washington: Government Printing Office, 1900. Map. Color lithograph. Image measures 13 1/2" x 11 1/2" This map of the Sulu Archipelago and the western part of island of Mindanao was originally prepared as part of a series made by the Manila Observatory of the Jesuits in 1899. Led by director P. Jose Algue, the Observatory employed only native Philippine draftsmen to complete the technical work required for the project. Upon learning of the Jesuits' undertaking, the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey entered into cooperation with the Observatory to produce a comprehensive atlas of the Philippine archipelago. The 30 maps were then brought to the U.S., redrawn slightly with regards to scale and projection, and published by the Survey in 1900 as the "Atlas of the Philippine Islands," the third edition in a series of special publications. This unique combination of American command and a wholly Spaniard or Filipino staff made the Observatory a rare example of cooperation during the period of the Philippine-American War, which continued from 1898 to 1902. Furthermore, the project is significant in its own right given the historic difficulty of mapping the islands, owing in particular to constant disputes between the warring imperial powers of Spain and Portugal. As the superintendent of the Survey describes in the atlas's introduction, the Jesuits spared no pains in securing all available data, and verified them by consultation with members of other religious orders, as well as with old residents, travels, and explorers. The map depicts the western peninsula of Mindanao and the Sulu Archipelago, also known as Basulta, comprising the islands of Basilan, Balanguingui, Jolo, Pangutaran, and Tawi Tawi. Topography is artistically rendered, and rivers, cities, towns, highways, horse trails, footpaths, lighthouses, seismic stations, streetcars, and estates are labeled. An inset in the upper left shows the city of Zamboanga and the surrounding area. The map is in excellent condition with vibrant color. Small binding holes to top margin, not affecting the image. The U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey was first established in 1807. After the Civil War, the bureau took responsibility for mapping and conducting geodetic surveys of the the interior of the expanding country. The beautiful quality of this map of the Philippines, particularly with regard to geodetic detail, attests to the fascinating history and hard work that lay behind it.
