Aggiungi al carrelloFirst edition. Corrected and Extended in the Present Edition. Housed in 10 3/4" x 6 1/2" blue cardboard covers. 78 pp., Editor's Preface, Contents. Advertisement to the Present Edition: "The Journal of Mr. Parker, originally produced in the United State (Ithaca, New York, 1838), seemed to the present Publishers to contain so muc…h interesting and valuable matter, as to be worthy of being laid before the public of this country. As was justly observed, however, in the North American Review, the work had defects both as regarded 'method and literary execution.' Moreoever, as the same authority, an impartial one in all respects, remarked, Mr. Parker had 'marred the value of his geographical and geological details by mixing up with them sundry inaccurate and superficial speculations of his own, concerning the general doctrine of the history of the globe's formation,' and other points In the present edition, pains have been taken to remove these blemishes. The inaccuracies of language have been rectified, a number of needless exclamations modified or deleted, and the crude disquisitions upon geology, in which the author had most unnecessarily indulged, have been, as far as was possible, expunged from the work. As here given, the Publishers conceive that it will be held a useful and agreeable addition to the literature of the day. In the preface that follows, the progress of discovery in the interior of North America, previously to the time of Mr. Parker, has been briefly detailed, with the view of rendering the work more complete."
