Publicado por Fez Morocco, 1902
Librería: Richard M. Ford Ltd, London, Reino Unido
Thirty-eight lines of text, on both sides of a 12mo leaf (dimensions roughly 17.5 x 11.5 cm). Text clear and complete, good on lightly aged, spotted and creased paper. One 0.5 cm closed tear not affecting text. The penultimate page is headed '5' and the text begins abruptly. Sixteen lines (all but the last three) of the first page describe ten days spent by Bird as MacLeod's guest in Fez. He describes her as an 'altogether delightful' guest. She is 'the most intelligent woman' he has ever met, 'as gentle & womanly and almost meek in manner as one could imagine'. She is however 'possessed of an energy of mind which staggers one'. He wonders that she has been able to do '1200 miles in Morocco [she had just crossed the Atlas Mountains] burdened with 71 years, a weak spine, a split knee cap, and a partially disabled arm.' He wishes she could have stayed with him the whole summer, and hopes that if his correspondent has not met her he will do so. His assistant has departed for England, but 'it won't be so utterly lonely as I've known it - when sometimes one didn't see a European face (save one's own in the glass!) for three or four weeks at a stretch!' Sends regards to common acquaintances. In a postscript he apologises for 'the sobriety of this letter. It has no atrocities by the natives or adventures & escapes of the writer - nor anything which the proper kind of letter from Barbary ought to have. - Better luck next time I hope.' See Image.

8vo (188 x 122mm), pp. xv, [1 (illustrations)], 318, [2 (publisher's advertisements)], 32 (further publisher's advertisements dated January 1894); wood-engraved frontispiece, one folding map by J.D. Cooper, 10 wood-engraved illustrations and plans, 2 full page, and letterpress tables in the text; original green cloth, upper board with blind border and central design in gilt, spine lettered and ruled in gilt, black endpapers, most quires unopened; extremities very lightly rubbed and bumped, nonetheless an exceptionally bright, largely unopened copy.Seventh edition. As Bishop states in her preface, 'I was travelling for health, when circumstances induced me to land on the group, and the benefit which I derived from the climate tempted me to remain for nearly seven months. During that time the necessity of leading a life of open air and exercise as a means of recovery, led me to travel on horseback to and fro through the islands, exploring the interior, ascending the highest mountains, visiting the active volcanoes and remote regions that are known to few even of the residents, living among the natives, and otherwise seeing Hawaiian life in all its phases' (p. ix). Bishop's The Hawaiian Archipelago is composed of thirty-one letters she wrote to her sister Henrietta and was first published in 1875; this edition follows the text of the revised second edition, which appeared in 1876 with a new preface and an appendix on 'Leprosy and the Leper Settlement on Molokal', as well as other revisions and amendments. Hawaiian National Bibliography judges that it is '[o]ne of the classic (and most often quoted) books on the Hawaiian Islands', adding that, '[i]t was immensely popular and went through many editions'. For the 1st ed., cf. Hawaiian National Bibliography 3070; Theakstone p. 23; Wayward Women p. 81.

She was born in Boroughbridge and grew up in Tattenhall, Cheshire. She was a sickly child and spent her entire life struggling with various ailments.

She studied medicine and resolved to travel as a missionary. She visited missions in India, Persia, Kurdistan and Turkey. Her final journey was to China and Korea. Many of her works are compiled from letters she wrote home to her sister in Scotland. Binding in dark blue/light blue cloth with golden lettering on spine and front, corners slightly bumped. 409 pp., names and a stamp of previous owners, in stock, sofort lieferbar.
