Aggiungi al carrelloCondizione: Very good. Inscribed by the author on the ffep. 12¼" x 9½". Blue cloth, gilt. pp. 43 + four interspersed plates containing a map, a chart and three original photographs. Very good: light wear that is stronger at spine tips and corners, a few minor stains. This is a finely produced travelogue documenting the sites and… peoples of several different Latin American countries. According to the book's forward, the author created it because, "The Panama Canal . . . should be the means of drawing this entire Western Hemisphere into closer bonds of commercial and social intercourse. Our neighbors . . . regret that their brothers of the United States do not understand them as they deserve to be understood . . . Let us not forget that they number nearly one hundred million strong and they and their respective countries are rapidly forging to the front ranks of modern nations. The opening of the Panama should be a day of rejoicing for the peoples of the Three Americas." Per the title, over three months, Long traveled to the listed countries and recorded detailed descriptions of each town or city he visited; he also provided brief histories of each country. In Cuba, he spent time in Matanzas and Santiago as well as providing this description of Havana, "visitors seem transported as they note the carefree throngs that eat, drink and make merry in the brilliant cafes and places of amusement along the broad and handsome Prado . . . streets in the old section are exceedingly narrow . . . The metropolis contains several modern office buildings, which appear like skyscrapers from the alleyways below, and the mansions of the wealthy, especially along the Malecon, are homes of splendor. On the other hand, the one-story dwellings of the working classes are devoid of ornamentation, the iron barred windows giving them the appearance of penal institutions." From Cuba Long went to Jamaica where in Montego Bay, "women display far more animation than men, driving carts, wheeling barrows, hawking long ropes of tobacco and smoking big black cigars with the sang froid of a veteran." Next was Columbia, with a first stop in Barranquilla, with this lyrical description of the end of siesta, "at the stroke of six the sunset gun sends forth its booming notes, and with an hour the Zocala fills [with people] . . . Along the plaza they stroll and chat the señors emitting great clouds of the noxious weed, the demoiselles flashing glances of Andalusian hue. They are of every rank and every class . . ." He also spent several pages describing Bogota. In Costa Rica he was impressed by San Jose, "it is not hyperbole to say that there are but few cities of the same size that display more animation or progressiveness we find in San Jose." He briefly discussed Punta Arenas before heading to Mexico where he spent a couple of pages on Mexico City and Cuernavaca, respectively, while also providing much detail on rail travel in the country. There are short passages on Jalapa, Orizaba and the last several pages are devoted to descriptions of Mayan ruins in the Yucatan peninsula. Also of note are the plates which include three original black and white photographs as well as a map of the Isthmus of Panama with the completed canal. The photos include a Cuban tobacco field and a view of the canal from the Gatun Dam. OCLC locates four copies over two entries; one has 17 plates, the other has 15. With ours a third variant, we imagine Long issued these books based on the number of photos or maps he had on hand. A rare travelogue documenting the sights and peoples of several Latin American countries and embellished with original photographs.

Aggiungi al carrelloFirst edition of this early twentieth century travelogue of Caribbean islands and Latin American countries. Quarto, original blue cloth with gilt titles to the front panel, triple ruling stamped in blind to the front and rear panels, illustrated with a map, a chart, and mounted sepia toned gelatin silver prints. Presentation cop…y, lengthily inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper, "My dear Mark: I know you will find many familiar shots in this little volume, and I trust my description will receive your commendation. Best wishes from your friend, William S. Long Christmas, 1912." In very good condition. Five Thousand Miles Around the Southern Cross by William Simon Long is a richly produced travelogue chronicling the authorâs three-month journey through Cuba, Jamaica, Colombia, Costa Rica, Mexico, and the Yucatán, framed by the geopolitical optimism surrounding the opening of the Panama Canal. Intended to foster greater understanding among the nations of the Western Hemisphere, the book reflects Longâs belief that closer commercial and cultural ties between the Americas were both possible and desirable. With vivid, often lyrical descriptions, Long captures the landscapes, urban life, and social customs of each region, balancing tourist observation with historical background. His portrayals range from Havanaâs glittering boulevards and working-class neighborhoods to the animated markets of Montego Bay and the lively plazas of Barranquilla. In San Josà , he is struck by the cityâs modernity, while his time in Mexico includes detailed commentary on rail travel and a culminating focus on the ruins of ancient Yucatán.

Aggiungi al carrelloFirst edition of this early twentieth century travelogue of Canada and the western part of the United States of America. Quarto, original blue cloth with gilt titles to the front panel, triple ruling stamped in blind to the front and rear panels, illustrated with 14 mounted sepia toned gelatin silver prints. Presentation copy, l…engthily inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper, "My dear Mark: Choo-choo! Choo-choo! Sting-a-ling! Sting-a-ling! All aboard! Sounds like business, eh? And your berth is all prepared for you with the select party now 'Doubling the North American Isle' with Your friend, W.S. Long. Xmas, 1913." In very good condition. Rare. Doubling the North American Isle by William Simon Long is a travel narrative that explores diverse regions of North America through a lens of cultural observation, historical reflection, and geographic curiosity. Published in the early 20th century, the book reflects Longâs continued interest in promoting continental unity and appreciation for the varied landscapes and peoples of North America. He combines first-hand impressions of places such as Nova Scotia, British Columbia, and the American Southwest with speculative commentary on ancient civilizations like Quibera, blending romanticized history with contemporary travel writing. Particularly notable is his descriptive account of the Grand Canyon, which exemplifies the bookâs focus on natural grandeur and national identity.
