    4to. Pp. vi, 141. Text in English and Chinese characters. Tiny hole in upper margin of first two leaves. Contemporary cloth backed boards, lightly rubbed, spine lettered, spine ends restored. First edition. The work was originally intended to be appended to the author's Chinese-English dictionary (Macao 1815-23) according to the preface. It is an important complement to the dictionary with information on history, geography, religion, festivals, etc, that is useful for people studying Chinese. The Reverend Robert Morrison, born in Scotland, was the first Protestant missionary in China. He arrived in Canton in 1807 and remained in China until his death in 1834. He became known for his linguistic abilities, serving as an interpreter on Lord Amherst's embassy to Peking in 1816, making the first Chinese version of the Bible, and compiling the first Chinese-English dictionary.

    First edition of this important sinological imprint, unrestored in the original boards. Morrison wrote A View of China as both a standalone reference and to accompany his famous dictionary of Chinese. The printing process employed Chinese type specially cast in Macao using a hybrid English and Chinese method. The East India Company's Macao press was established in 1814 with type and equipment brought from Europe and an initial investment of almost 15,000 pounds. Its first manager, Peter Perring Thoms (1791-1855), supervised the production of Morrison's dictionary over a seven-year period, during which he also undertook a number of side printing projects. For his many sinological contributions, Morrison deserves his reputation as "the chief person who opened to his countrymen the road to the knowledge of the language of China" (ODNB). After serving as the interpreter during Lord Amherst's abortive mission to Peking, he returned to Britain in 1824, bringing with him a substantial library that became the core of the collection at the School of Oriental and African Studies.

    First and sole edition of the earliest maritime regulations printed in India, detailing the day-to-day governance of the Bombay Marine, the East India Company's navy. Rare, with only two institutional locations recorded. Founded in 1612 and based successively at Surat and Bombay, the Marine became a principal instrument of British expansion from the Red Sea to Southeast Asia, supporting major campaigns against the Marathas, the Mysore and Burmese states, and - most prominently - the Wahabi Qasimi confederation in the Gulf. Its squadron played a decisive role in the 1809 and 1819 operations culminating in the General Treaty of Peace, earning high praise from naval commanders and Governor Mountstuart Elphinstone. The Marine was equally important as a surveying body. These regulations illuminate the rigorous expectations placed on officers such as Blair, McCluer, Ross, and Brucks, whose coastal surveys from the Gulf to the China Seas underpinned British navigation for decades. The text formalizes command responsibilities, shipboard discipline, victualling and punishments, and mandates systematic hydrographic surveying, accompanied by 17 templates for logs and accounts. Issued under Henry Meriton, superintendent and commander of the Gulf Squadron, they reflect the Marine's transition into a permanently deployed regional force at a pivotal moment in Company rule.
