Title: A JOURNEY TO THE NORTH POLE. With: THE FIELD OF ICE
Author: Verne, Jules
Seller: Sumner & Stillman (United States)
Description: 1875. [a handsome set] [Together, two volumes.] With 129 | 126 [total 255] Illustrations by Riou. London and New York: George Routledge and Sons, 1875 [actually 1874]. 14 pp undated ads in the latter volume. Original terra-cotta cloth pictorially decorated in black and gilt. First British Edition of the two volumes that together comprise Verne's maritime tale THE VOYAGES AND ADVENTURES OF CAPTAIN HATTERAS. Crewmembers sign on for a mysterious voyage to an unknown destination, in a ship without a captain; ultimately Captain Hatteras reveals himself (after posing as a member of the crew) and announces that they are headed for the North Pole. (Ultimately, after shipwreck and days on an ice floe, a mute Capt. John Hatteras winds up in an asylum near Liverpool, where he goes on daily walks, always facing north.) The American edition published by Osgood in mid-1874, all in one volume, was the first edition in English. Routledge published these two volumes in late 1874, though dated 1875 -- apparently not simultaneously (as a note at the end of the first volume's text indicates that the other volume "will shortly be published"). Some copies of the first volume, likewise dated 1875, bear the front cover and title page title of THE ENGLISH AT THE NORTH POLE; regarding precedence it is believed that A JOURNEY (as here) came first, because later Routledge reprints bear the THE ENGLISH title. Routledge subsequently (in 1875) published the entire tale in one volume. Both volumes are bound in terra-cotta pictorial cloth, though the cloth of one volume has a "pebblier" texture than the other -- a variation we have had before; Myers mentions only blue or red cloth, and we have also seen orange-brown and green -- no color priority known. Both volumes are in fine condition (slightly askew, but scarcely any wear). The same color and in great condition, they make quite a pair. Taves & Michaluk V004; Myers p. 65; also see Mistichelli A16. Provenance: both volumes bear a Christmas 1874 penciled inscription to the same person.
