Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Step into seventeenth century New England, where every shoreline, forest, and marsh seems to hold a name worth recording. A world newly seen, described. John Josselyn's New-England's Rarities Discovered is a vivid colonial natural history book and early American travel narrative, written by an English visitor with an eye for what settlers ate, feared, traded, and planted.Part observation, part practical handbook, it reads like a 17th century field guide to the region's life: New England plants and herbs gathered for medicine and cookery; birds beasts and fishes noted for their habits and usefulness; and the sharper edges of a colonial era wildlife description, from troublesome insects to formidable serpents. Its plain-spoken cataloguing turns wonder into knowledge, and knowledge into survival at the rough edge of settlement. For modern readers it offers more than curiosity: it is a historical ecology reference, capturing landscapes and species as they were encountered in early colonial America, before later centuries reshaped the environment.Long valued as a primary source research text, Josselyn's record helps illuminate how Europeans interpreted nature in seventeenth century New England, and why those interpretations mattered. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. A natural fit for a classic exploration literature collection, and a facsimile edition for collectors who prize early science, travel, and the first English attempts to catalogue a new world.…
