Aggiungi al carrelloLeather bound. Condizione: Very Good+. First Edition. 12mo. (4-1/4 x 6-1/4). Pp. viii, [1], 2-351, 2-78. Frontis. etching "Peter, the Chief." Illustrated with an additional twenty etchings and a map. Full calf, gilt and blind borders on the covers, spine decorations and black lettering piece in gilt between five raised bands, ma…rbled endpapers and edges. Corners gently bumped, edges rubbed, spine sunned, leaves clean and bright in a solid binding. A key volume in the Pacific Northwest border controversy that gave us the rallying cry "Fifty-four Forty or Fight!" Nicolay, although British, purports to present a neutral view of the matter. That said, he argues for ceding to the British land north of the California border. Following publication, the border conflict was resolved by when the Treaty of Washington (1846) was jointly signed by the US and Great Britain. Per Tweney, "this book is often found bound with a book entitled, The Backwoods of Canada .", as is this volume, although the two titles are here transposed, with the Oregon work abridged. See HOWES: O112, SMITH: 7709, SOLIDAY III: 633, LOWTHER: 430, WAGNER-CAMP: 122d.

Aggiungi al carrelloFirst edition. Very nice copy of this book printed for English youth and published the year in which the Treaty of Washington was signed, ending the dispute between Great Britain and the U.S. over title to the Oregon Country. Tweney mentions in hisWashington Eighty-Nine: "This book gives the English side of the Oregon boundary d…ispute, and urges that the northern line of California be the natural boundary between the two countries." Besides presenting arguments, the book is also very descriptive in the early settlement of the Pacific Northwest and rise of the fur trade. Not often found in the original cloth in presentable condition. Howes N151. Sabin 55251. Smith 7311. Wagner-Camp 122C:1. Washington 89, 57. . 15x10cm, [7], 226pp. Frontis, folding map at pg. 102. Cream blind stamped cloth with gilt spine lettering. Boards smudged, spine darkened. Prelims unopened, else clean internally and nearly fine.
