' In 1829 the young Schomburk, a native of Germany, travelled to the Caribbean where, after various business failures began to devote himself to the study of natural history, especially botany. The quality of his work encouraged the Royal Geographical Society to sponsor his explorations of north-east South America for which no reliable maps or information existed which eventually led to him being appointed boundary commisioner of British Guiana with the task of surveying that colony s boundary.

Desde la llegada de Schomburgk en la Guayana Británica en 1835, hasta 1839, explorà gran parte del interior de la colonia y completà el viaje por tierra al Orinoco para conectar su expedicià n con la de Alexander von Humboldt. Durante estas expediciones fue testigo de malos tratos a los amerindios a manos de los brasileños y propuso que se fijara la manera de proteger a la colonia británica del acoso. El Gobierno británico decidià proteger la frontera y Schomburgk fue nombrado comisionado de lÃmites con la tarea de inventariar los las fronteras de la colonia. Lo hizo entre 1841 y 1843, volviendo a Londres en 1844 para ser recompensado con el tÃtulo de caballero por sus servicios. Durante gran parte de su carrera posterior, hasta su muerte en 1865, se desempeñà como cà nsul británico, primero en Santo Domingo y luego en Bangkok.

Notes; Includes bibliographical references. Contents; Vol. 1 Explorations on behalf of the Royal Geographical Society (1835-1839).- Vol. 2 The Boundary Survey 1840-1844. Summary; This is the first of a pair of volumes publishing the unedited full reports of Schomburgk's travels in Guiana between 1835 and 1844, previously available only in greatly abridged and heavily edited versions. Robert Schomburgk left his native Germany for North America in 1828, aged twenty-four. A year later he was in the Caribbean, where, after various business failures, he devoted himself to the investigation of natural history, especially botany. Although he had no previous contact with the Royal Geographical Society in London, the work he submitted to it was of such a quality that he was able to persuade the Society to sponsor explorations in the north-east of South America, an area for which no accurate maps and little reliable information existed. From Schomburgk's arrival in British Guiana in 1835 up to 1839, he explored much of the interior of the colony and completed the arduous overland journey to the Orinoco to connect his survey with that of Alexander von Humboldt. During these expeditions he witnessed maltreatment of Amerindians at the hand of Brazilians, and having ascertained that the boundary between Brazil and British Guiana was undefined he proposed it should be fixed so that those within the British colony would be protected from further harassment. The British Government decided to go ahead with this exercise, and Schomburgk was appointed boundary commissioner with the task of surveying the boundaries of the colony. He did this between 1841 and 1843, returning to London in 1844 to be rewarded with a knighthood for his services. Subjects; Schomburgk, Robert Hermann Sir (1804-1865). Guyana. Explorers. Description and Travel. Colonies. Nineteenth Century. Travel writing ; Geographical discovery & exploration ; Imperialism ; Colonization & independence. South America ; (c 1800 to c 1900).
