Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. In 1887, at the tender age of eighteen, Tappan Adney embarked on his first trip to New Brunswick. He had plans to enrol at Columbia University in the fall, primed for a meteoric rise in academia but fate intervened. He fell under the spell of the New Brunswick wilderness and the local Maliseet people. Nothing escaped his curiosity. Adney embarked on hunting, fishing, and camping trips, recording his wilderness adventures in journals through evocative sketches and memorable prose, including the detail of a caribou hunt decades before their extinction in this area of the country. Years later, Tappan Adney went on to become a celebrated journalist, photographer, and ethnologist. His models of aboriginal canoes, now in many museum collections, helped save the birchbark canoe from oblivion. This new, revised edition of the original volume of The Travel Journals of Tappan Adney is a welcome companion to the recently published second volume of Tappan Adney's journals. This edition features a few corrections, the inclusion of recently discovered photographs, and a more relaxed design to match the second volume for reading ease. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Setting out to visit his friends in Woodstock, New Brunswick, and with all intentions to return to the United States to attend Columbia University in the fall, Tappan Adney, at the age of 18, embarked on a trip that would ultimately set the course of his life. Tappan Adney's writings, illustrations, and photographs were published in Harper's Magazine. This follow-up journal to 2010's first volume, takes us back to a time when wildness was still something easily accessible and wildlife abundant. These experiences, seen through the eyes of a young man from the city and illustrated with his own sketches, photographs, and remarkably accurate maps, bring readers into this world, allowing them to walk and canoe the roads and rivers with him. The first volume showed us a remarkable young man who fell under the spell of the 19th century New Brunswick wilderness and the Maliseet people. Now, in this second volume of Adney's journals, we meet a man still passionate but wiser, transformed from enthusiastic hunter to reflective woodsman and decades ahead of his time in foreseeing the need for environmental protection. Recounted in the dialect of the day with the added flair of Adney's inimitable humour, and augmented by maps, sketches, and photographs, these journals provide an authentic glimpse into the world before the turn of the 20th century. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Winner, NB Book Award (Non-Fiction) The remarkable life and legacy of an extraordinary man whose influence echoes through time. Tappan Adney travelled from New York to New Brunswick for a summer holiday at the age of 19 in 1887, and it changed the course of his life. Adney is best known for a singular achievement. He was the artist, writer, and illustrator whose chance encounter with Peter Jo, a Welastekwi Eldercraftsman, led to a passionate, lifelong interest in the birchbark canoe and Welastekwey culture. But that is only part of the story. Throughout his life, little escaped Adneys curiosity. From his extensive documentation of the design of Indigenous canoes to his reportage on the Klondike Gold Rush; from his work as an illustrator, photographer, and designer to his natural history journalism; from his activism for Indigenous rights to his documentation of the Welastekwey language, Adneys mind roamed from one passion to another, leaving behind a treasure trove of natural history and ethnographic research. This book tells the intriguing story of his remarkable life and his multifaceted legacy. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
