8vo, pp. xvi, [2], 517, [1 (blank)]; half-title, 21 plates (some coloured), and 1 folding chart of Patagonia; browning, occasional small chips to fore-edges, some damp staining to plates, closed tears to map (repairs to verso), pp. 87-90 loose; overall good in twentieth-century green morocco, spine lettered and decorated in gilt; spine slightly sunned.First edition of the travel account of Robert Oliver Cunningham (1841-1918), a Scottish naturalist employed aboard the H.M.S. 'Nassau' during a surveying expedition of the Strait of Magellan between 1866 and 1869.Cunningham, who had only just become Professor of Natural History at the Royal Agricultural College, Chichester, was appointed to the position on the recommendation of the famous explorer and close friend of Darwin John Dalton Hooker (1817-1911), after the Admiralty asked Hooker to whom this book is dedicated if he could recommend two 'high class naturalists' for upcoming expeditions (Huxley, II, 80). The 'Nassau' left Woolwich Dockyard in June 1866, and in the following years Cunningham noted down his observations from a number of exotic locations throughout Brazil, Chile, and Argentina. Readers fearful that they might share Darwin's conclusion that Cunningham's letters 'are too full of plants for my taste' (letter to Hooker, 2 September 1667), will be pleased to find, in addition to Cunningham's excursions on botany, lengthy and fascinating descriptions pertaining to zoology, marine biology, palaeontology and anthropology, whether it be sightings of guanaco herds on the Patagonian shore to the discovery of fossils of the extinct Anoplotherium in the Gallegos river or a visit to the Chilean penal colony at Punta Arenas. Indeed, Cunningham's work represents a vibrant insight into the seismic development of British geology, zoology, and botany in the era of global, scientific exploration and in the immediate years after the publication of Darwin's most important works. This first edition, compiled by Cunningham from his notes and published three years after his return in 1871, also features, in addition to a number of plates depicting such objects as insects, plants, and animal skulls, a map of Patagonia by the Scottish geographer and cartographer Alexander Keith Johnston (1804-1871) and illustrations by the Edinburgh-based firm of George Waterston & son.

In grateful recollection of July and August 1870 .- Muy escaso. MATIJEVIC, 888. SANTOS GOMEZ, 857. Robert O. Cunningham, viajero y naturalista británico, cumplió una misión similar a la que treinta años antes había desempeñado Darwin en un viaje más amplio: describir la flora y la fauna del Estrecho de Magallanes, canales adyacentes y costa occidental de la Patagonia. A bordo del pequeño vapor Nassau recorrió también, con idéntico propósito, las islas Malvinas, Tierra del Fuego, Río Gallegos, Punta Arenas y Valparaíso, amén de haber visitado las ciudades de Río de Janeiro, Montevideo y Buenos Aires, sobre las que dejó asentadas sus impresiones. El resultado es una obra de enorme interés científico y descriptivo y una contribución insoslayable al conocimiento de la historia natural patagónica.

xvi,[2],517pp. plus twenty-one lithographic plates (some colored) and colored folding map. Original green cloth, spine gilt. Some slight spotting on binding. Hinges a bit weak but holding. Occasional light foxing on text leaves. Still a very good copy, with the bookplate of George Bennett (see below) and of noted collector Kenneth Hill. A rare account of an exploration of the Strait of Magellan. Cunningham was appointed naturalist aboard the Nassau, a steamer sent to survey the Strait and the adjacent channels. This book contains a narrative of the voyage and natural history descriptions. Cunningham's own interest was in the ornithology of the region (after the voyage he published various pieces in the IBIS on the subject), but he also discusses the botany of the area, mentioning his collections of plants in the Royal Herbarium, Kew, and promising articles on the reptiles, amphibia, fishes, mollusca, and crustacea in LINNEAN TRANSACTIONS. His natural history connections were evidently impeccable, since he acknowledges the help of Hooker, Huxley, Newton, Flower, Sclater, Salvin, Gray, Gunther, and Baird. The folding map shows Patagonia, with an inset of the Strait of Magellan. Though the present copy bears the bookplate of noted collector Kenneth Hill, there is no copy listed in the catalogue of the Hill Collection of Pacific Voyages at the University of California at San Diego. This copy also bears the bookplate of George Bennett, M.D., a Sydney doctor and leading figure in colonial science, closely involved with many of the newly established societies such as the Australian Museum, the Acclimatization Society, and the Zoological Society. He corresponded with some of the prominent natural history figures of the day such as Richard Owe, and was John Gould's agent in Sydney. He was himself the author of two excellent travel books (WANDERINGS IN NEW SOUTH WALES [1834] and GATHERINGS OF A NATURALIST IN AUSTRALIA [1860]).
