4to. pp. xiii, [1 leaf], 556. 7 maps & plans (incl. folding 3-sheet map of Chile), 1 chromolithograph, & 5 tinted lithographs (incl. large folding panorama of Santiago from Santa Lucia, with some hand-colouring). several text diagrams. contemporary half calf (worn, covers almost detached, panorama torn along 1 fold with very slight loss, some foxing to plate margins). Volume I only of a work that was never completed: only Volumes I, II, III & VI were ever published, the last two volumes of astronomical, magnetical, and meteorological observations being quite scarce. The present volume contains information on Chile s geography, climate, earthquakes, government, social condition, mineral and agricultural resources, and commerce and an account of the expedition s travels in the country. The expedition failed in its primary objective to determine the solar parallax as very little was done to conduct simultaneous observations of Venus and Mars in the northern hemisphere, but it did result in the establishment of a permanent observatory in Santiago.
