Item Details

Description

The Pacific voyage of the Galathea
BILLE, STEEN
Beretning om Corvetten Galathea's Reise omkring Jorden 1845, 46 og 47.
Copenhagen: Bianco Luno for C. A. Reitzel, 1849-51
First edition.
Three volumes, publisher's original cloth-backed boards with paper lettering pieces housed in a modern cloth case.
Size 9 1/8 x 5 3/4 inches (23 x 14.5 cm)
495 pp.; 465 pp.; 513, lxvii pp.; in total 20 tinted lithographed plates, folding manuscript facsimile, 5 folding maps.
Bindings sound though slightly worn, internally pale foxing, but in all an excellent, uncut set of this scarce voyage.
This is first edition of the official account of the first Danish circumnavigation, undertaken to explore the possibility of colonizing the Nicobar Islands.
Bille, the captain of the Galathea, visited Hong Kong, Canton, Tokyo, Honolulu (where Bille negotiated a treaty; the text discusses Hawai'i extensively), Tahiti, Lima, Valparaiso and Bahia.
Text in Danish
From the Collection of Quentin Keynes; Gift to his American doctor

The Galathea expeditions comprise a series of three Danish ship-based scientific research expeditions in the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries, carried out with material assistance from the Royal Danish Navy and, with regard to the second and third expeditions, under the auspices of the Danish Expedition Foundation. All three expeditions circumnavigated the world from west to east and followed similar routes.
