2,400 $
First edition. The so-called deluxe issue, where the natural history plates occur in full vibrant colours; the illustration, rich in iconography, is comprised of 27 plates in black and white, and 21 in contemporary colour: portraying local costumes, views, indigenous population, ornaments, and natural history (including the plate of the kangaroo) of Chile, Brazil, Tahiti, the Falklands, Australia, Port Jackson: "This book is much valued for the ten [sic] beautiful coloured plates of birds besides the views it contains" (Hill). Lesson´s narrative is valuable as is one of the very few accounts of the expedition. Duperrey´s expedition lasted from 1822-25, it was "largely scientific in purpose, called at Brazil and the Falkland Islands, and then rounded Cape Horn and sailed along the coast visiting Concepcion, Callao, and Payta. Heading towards the Tuamotu Archipelago, Duperrey discovered Clermont Tonnerre (Reao) and then went on to Tahiti. In June 1823, the Coquille sailed for Port Jackson via Tonga, the Santa Cruz Island, New Britain, New Ireland, and the Moluccas… Lesson was the naturalist of this expedition, and his account of the voyage supplies the details which Duperrey failed to publish" (Hill).
Lesson (1794 – 1849) was a French surgeon, naturalist, zoologist and ornithologist, besides explorer and adventurer; the last portion of his resume was gained by his participation in 1822 in the voyage around the world on board the Coquille, under the command of Duperrey, under the position of doctor and botanist. From his voyage, Lesson, brought with him 3 heads of Maoris, one of which survives at the museum of natural history of La Rochelle.

Good- Condition/ No dj included. Please see stock photo for typical condition. "Pablo Neruda is one of the most influential and widely read 20th-century poets of the Americas. "No writer of world renown is perhaps so little known to North Americans as Chilean poet Pablo Neruda," observed New York Times Book Reviewcritic Selden Rodman. Numerous critics have praised Neruda as the greatest poet writing in the Spanish language during his lifetime. John Leonard in the New York Times declared that Neruda "was, I think, one of the great ones, a Whitman of the South." Among contemporary readers in the United States, he is largely remembered for his odes and love poems."
