Description
London: Longman, Brown, Green Longmans, & Roberts, 1857 Book. Fine. Hardcover. 2nd Edition. Second and best edition due to the addition of the frontis portrait of M'Clure and much added material. Edited by Commander Sherard Osborn. xxxii, 463pp. + 24pp. of ads. Large folding map, steel-engraved frontis portrait, four tinted lithograph plates after Commander S. Gurney Cresswell. Blindstamped dark blue cloth, gilt, brown coated endpapers with ads on pastedowns. Inner hinges starting, minimal wear to spine ends. A fine copy. Sent out in 1850 by the Admiralty to search for Franklin via Bering Strait. M'Clure in the Investigator and Collinson in the Enterprise made their way to Prince of Wales Strait, where they wintered 1850-51, and explored the shores of Banks Island and M'Clure Strait as far as Mercy Bay, where the Investigator became frozen in the ice, and was later abandoned, in June of 1853. M'Clure's sledge party continued eastward over Barrow Strait to Dealy Island where they encountered a Franklin search party from Sir Edward Belcher's expedition traveling westward, and returned with them in 1854 to England, thus completing the first successful Northwest Passage.

Description
[Stockholm]: Midnight Paper Sales, 2000. First edition limited to 166 copies, this one of 140 of the regular edition; folio, pp. 71, [4]; orig. tan cloth-backed blue paper-covered boards showing the repeated design of the Sumac pressmark, leather label on spine; as new in publisher's slipcase. Illustrated throughout with 24 facsimiles, woodcuts, ink-jet reproductions, ephemera, and 7 color wood-engravings by the artist-printer, Gaylord Schanilec. Introduction by Rob Rulon-Miller and with a check-list by him of better than 270 books, chapbooks, broadsides, etc. printed by Emerson Wulling at his Sumac Press in both Minneapolis and La Crosse, Wisconsin. The text proper consists of a two-part interview conducted by Gaylord Schanilec and Rob Rulon-Miller with Emerson Wulling in 1995 and 1999. Wulling, who began printing in 1916 and continued to print into the 21st century, printed longer than any printer before him - 87 years in all - a record, of sorts, which will quite probably never be broken.
