Description
Paris: Imp. Royale, 1753 . First Edition.. Full contemporary calf.. Very good; rebacked.. 4to, [2], viii, [1] – 288, [10 – Contents & errata] pp. + 6 fldg. maps (eng. by Gobin); folding. plate; folding table. A model of cartographic and physical science and the best of 18th European scientific voyaging to the western hemisphere. The expedition was mounted to rectify the pilot maps for the eastern coast of Canada and to undertake a variety of astronomical measurements. Chabert sailed from Brest to Louisbourg on Cape Breton Island. Initial surveys were carried out there and then at neighboring islands and the mouth of the St. Lawrence. Chabert's cartographic work was held up as a model for others to emulate by the French Academy. As if to underscore his celebrity he was also the author of a noted work on chronometers and the longitude. The maps drawn up and printed here for the first time were later incorporated into Jeffery's North American Pilot issued in London in 1775. Sabin # 11723; Tooley, America, p. 194; TPL # 222; Lande # 114.

Description
[Philadephia]: For the author, 1818. Octavo-sized pamphlet ( x cm.), 63 pages. FIRST ILLUSTRATED EDITION, overall the Sixth, Improved Edition. With an engraved frontispiece, possibly by William Charles, depicting a drunken rider felled by a low hanging branch. Thirteen woodcuts in the text by William Mason. The rare wrapper, here with the front panel present only, contains yet another woodcut, likely also by Mason. A temperance tract, by the famous Parson Weems, inventor of the George Washington cherry tree incident. A series of well written cautionary tales, often quite humorous. "As the wan countenance of the lust-worn harlot, becomes still more dark and dismal at the sight of a young female, fresh and blushing in all the charms of virgin innocence, so does the soul of a filthy drunkard experience a quickened hell, at the site of a gentleman well drest and breathing the cheerful air of cleanliness and sobriety." The pamphlet is worn, with a small one-eighth inch hole in the engraved frontispiece, and one page torn through the text due to a careless page separation. The illustrated wrapper panel is worn but the text and illustrations are unscathed. In all, a decent survival.
