783. Relation d'un Voyage aux Monts d'Altai en Siberie, 1781. Par
Patrin. Peters. 1785, 8vo.--Mineralogical.
784. Recherches Historiques sur les Principales Nations
Établies en Siberie. Paris, 1801. 8vo.--This work, translated
from the Russian of Fischer, displays a great deal of research, and
is not unworthy of an author who imitated Pallas, Gmelin,
Müller, &c.
785. Recherches sur les Principales Nations en Siberie. Traduit du
Russe de Stollenweck. 8vo.
786. Description de Kamschatcha. Par Krascheninnikof. Amsterd.
1770. 2 vols. 8vo.--The soil, climate, productions, minerals, furs,
habitations, manners, employments, religious ceremonies and opinions,
&c., and even the dialect spoken in different parts, are here
treated of.
787. Journal Historique du Voyage de M. Lesseps. Paris, 1790. 2
vols. 8vo.--Lesseps sailed with Le Peyrouse, but left him in
Kamschatcha, and travelled by land to France with despatches from
him; his narrative gives a lively picture of the inhabitants of the
northern parts of Asiatic and European Russia. The work has been
translated into English; there is also a German translation by
Forster.
788. Sauer's Account of Billing's Geographical and Astronomical
Expedition to the Northern Parts of Russia, 1785-94. 4to.--An account
of this expedition was also published in Russian by Captain
Saretschewya, one of the officers engaged in it. Parts of the
continent, and islands and seas little known, are described in these
two works, but they are deficient in natural history.
789. Holderness's Notes relating to the Manners and Customs of the
Crim Tartars. 1823. 8vo.--Mrs. Holderness resided four years in the
Crimea, and she seems to have employed her time well, having produced
an instructive book on the manners, domestic life, &c., not only
of the Crim Tartars, but likewise of the various colonists of the
Crimea.
IX. AMERICA.
Those works which relate to the discovery of America, derive their
interest rather from their historical nature than from the insight
they give into the physical and moral state of this portion of the
globe. In one important particular; America differs from all the
other quarters of the world, very early travels in Asia or Africa
unfold to us particulars respecting races of people that still exist,
and thus enable us to compare their former with their present state,
whereas nearly all the original inhabitants of America have
disappeared.
Referring therefore our readers to the historians of the discovery
and conquest of America, and to the Bibliothèque des Voyages,
for the titles and nature of those works which detail the voyages of
Columbus, Vespucius, &c., we shall confine ourselves chiefly to
such works as enter more fully into a description of the country and
its colonized inhabitants.
790. Journal des Observations Physiques, Mathematiques, et
Botaniques, faites par le P. Feuillée, sur les Côtes de
l'Amerique Méridionale et dans les Indes Occidentales. Paris,
1714. 2 vols. 4to.
791. Suite du Journal. Paris, 1715. 4to.--Excellent works on the
subjects indicated in the title.
792. Notizias Americanas sobre las America Meridionel y la
Septentrionel- Oriental. Par Don Ant. de Ulloa. Madrid, 1772.
4to.--This work, which must not be confounded with the conjoint work
of Ulloa and Juan, is rich in valuable matter, physical, political,
and moral; it was translated into German by M. Diez, Professor of
Natural History at Gottingen, who has added learned and judicious
observations.
793 Voyages intéressans dans differentes Colonies
Françaises, Espagnoles, Anglaise. Paris, 1788. 8vo.--The most
original and interesting portions of this work relate to Porto Rico,
Curaçoa, Granada, the Bermudas, &c.; there are also
valuable remarks on the climate and diseases of St. Domingo.
794. Catesby's Natural History of Carolina, Florida, and the
Bahama Islands. 1734-43. 2 vols. folio.
795. Appendix to ditto. 1748. folio.--The celebrated naturalist,
George Edwards, published an edition of this splendid work, with the
appendix, in Latin and French, in 2 vols. folio. 1764-71.
796. Peter Kalm's Travels in North America, translated by R.
Forster. 1772. 2 vols. 8vo.--Chiefly geological and mineralogical; in
other respects not interesting.
797. Adair's History of the American Indians. 1775. 4to.--The
speculations of this writer are abundantly absurd; but there are
interspersed some curious notices of the Indians, collected by the
author, while he resided and traded with them.
798. Travels through Carolina, Georgia, Florida, &c. By W.
Bertram. 1792. 2 vols. 8vo.--A most interesting work to lovers of
natural history, especially botany, a study to which Bertram was
enthusiastically attached. There is an account of Mr. Bertram in the
American Farmer's Letters.
799. An Account of the Countries adjoining to Hudson's Bay. By Ar.
Dobbs. 1744. 12mo.
800. The State of Hudson's Bay. By Ed. Humphraville. 1790.
8vo.
801. Account of Prince of Wales Island, in the Gulph of St.
Lawrence. By J. Stewart. 1808. 8vo.--A good deal of information on
the soil, agriculture, productions, climate, &c.: the zoology
imperfect.
802. Hall's Travels in Canada and the United States, 1816-17.
8vo.
802. Howison's Sketches of Upper Canada. 8vo. 1821.
Hall's is a pleasant and lively work, unfolding many of the
peculiarities of the manners, customs, &c., of Canada and the
adjacent parts of the United States. Howison's is the work of an
abler man: it is rich in valuable information to emigrants; and is,
moreover, highly descriptive of scenery and manners. The part
relative to the United States is superficial.
804. Collection des Plusieures Relations du Canada, 1632-1672. 43
vols. 12mo.
805. Charlevoix's Travels in North America, translated from the
French. 1772. 2 Vols. 4to.--The physical and moral state of the
inhabitants are the principal objects of this work.
806. Carver's Travels through the Interior Parts of North America,
1766-68. 8vo.--There is much information in this work respecting that
part of America, which has lately attracted so much attention from
its vicinity to the supposed north-west passage; it is in all other
respects, except natural history, an interesting and instructive
work.
807. Long's Voyage and Travels of an Indian Interpreter. 1774. 3
vols. 4to. Volney characterizes this work as exhibiting a most
faithful picture of the life and manners of the Indians and Canadian
traders.
808. Weld's Travels through North America, 1795-7. 2 vols.
8vo.--Travels in the United States derive their interest and value
from a variety of sources: the inhabitants of these states under
their government, and the peculiar circumstances in which they are
placed, must be a subject of deep attention and study to the
moralist, the philosopher, the politician, and the political
economist, while the country itself presents to the naturalist many
and various sources of information and acquisitions to his knowledge.
The travels of Mr. Weld, and most of those which we shall have to
enumerate, were undertaken for the purpose of ascertaining what
advantages and disadvantages an emigrant would derive from exchanging
Europe for America. Thus led to travel from the principal motive of
self-interest, it might be imagined that these travellers would
examine every thing carefully, fully, most minutely, and impartially:
in all modes except the last, it has certainly been done by several
travellers; but great caution must be used in reading all travels in
the United States, because the picture drawn of them is too often
overcharged, either with good or evil. Mr, Weld's is a respectable
work; and like all travels, even a few years back, in a country so
rapidly changing and improving, from this cause as well as its
information on statistics, toil, climate, morals, manners, &c.
may be consulted with advantage. It is to be regretted that he, as
well as most other travellers in America, was not better prepared
with a scientific knowledge of natural history. Canada, as well as
the United States, is comprized in Mr. Weld's travels.
809. Mellish's Travels through the United States of America,
1816-17. 2 vols. 8vo.--This is perhaps as impartial and judicious an
account of the United States as any that has lately appeared.
810. Lettres d'un Cultivateur Americain, 1770-86. Par M. St. John
de Crevecoeur. Paris, 1787. 3 vols. 8vo.--We give the French edition
of this work in preference to the English, because it is much fuller.
This work of a Frenchman, long settled in the Anglo-American
colonies, gives, in an animated and pleasing manner, much information
on the manners of America at this period, the habits and occupations
of the new settlers, and on the subject of natural history.
811. Voyages dans les États Unis, 1784. Par J.F.D. Smith.
Paris, 1791. 2 vols. 8vo.--Virginia, Maryland, the two Carolinas, and
Louisiana, parts of North America, not so often visited by travellers
as the northern states, are here described with considerable talent,
and in a pleasing style. We are not acquainted with the English work,
of which this professes to be a translation.
812. Nouveau Voyage dans les États Unis, 1788. Par Brissot.
Paris, 3 vols. 8vo.--Statistics, religion, manners, political
economy, agriculture, commerce, manufactures, the arts and sciences,
are here treated of in a sensible, but rather an uninteresting
manner.
813. La Rochefoucault's Travels to the United States of America,
1799. 2 vols. 4to.--Agriculture, statistics, manufactures, commerce,
national and domestic habits, form the chief topic of these volumes,
which, allowing for some prejudices, present a fair picture of
America at this period.
814. Tableau du Climat et du Sol des États Unis. Par C.F.
Volney. 1803. 2 vols. 8vo.--Though physical geography and statistics
form the principal portion of this valuable work, yet it is by no
means uninstructive on the subject of national and domestic
character; and it enters fully into the condition of savage life.
Particular histories and descriptions have been published of
several of the United States; we shall merely notice such as are the
result of personal observation, and as give interesting and
instructive information respecting their past or present state.
815. Belknap's History of New Hampshire, 1792. Boston, 3 vols.
8vo.--The two first volumes are historical, but many things in them
are instructive to those who wish to trace the formation of
character: the third volume relates to climate, soil,
produce,&c.
816. The History of Virginia, by a Native and Inhabitant of the
place. R.B. Beverley. 1722. 8vo.--The first part is purely
historical; in the second, the author gives an account of the
productions of the country; the third relates to the manners, &c.
of the Indians; the fourth is political. There are, besides, many
pertinent remarks on the physical geography of Virginia, and on its
climate and diseases.
817. Notes on Virginia. By Thos. Jefferson. 1788. 8vo.--Politics,
commerce, manufactures, and navigation, are here treated of in a
satisfactory and instructive manner, but with rather too much the air
of philosophy.
818. Michaux's Travels to the West of the Alleghany Mountains.
1805. 8vo.--These travels are instructive regarding the manners,
commerce, soil, climate, and especially botany.
819. Lewis and Clarke's Travels up the Missouri to the Pacific
Ocean, 1804-6. 4to.
820. Pike's Exploratory Travels through the Western Territory of
North America. 4to.
821. James's Account of an Expedition to the Rocky Mountains,
1819-20. 3 vols. 8vo.
822. Schoolcraft's Travels to the Sources of the Mississippi.
1820. 8vo.
823. Nuttall's Travels into the Arkansa Territory. 1819.
8vo.--These travels describe a vast portion of America to the west of
the Alleghany Mountains, especially the valley of the Mississippi,
and its tributary streams. They are rather prolix and heavily
written. Mr. James's work is richest in natural history.
824. A Concise Natural History of East and West Florida. By
Bernard Romans. New York, 1766. 12mo.--The climate, productions, and
diseases of Florida are here treated of by this author, who was a
medical man, and had good opportunities of observation and
experience.
825. Description de la Louisiane. Par L.P. Hennepin, Paris, 1688.
12mo.--This author first made Europe acquainted with Louisiana; but
his work is meagre on every topic, except the manners, &c. of the
natives.
826. Histoire de la Louisiane. Par M. Le Page du Prats. Paris,
1758. 3 vols. 12mo.--During a residence of 15 years, this author
seems to have paid particular attention to geology, mineralogy, and
other branches of natural history, and has given the results of his
observations in these volumes.
827. Travels through that part of North America called Louisiana.
Translated and illustrated with notes by R.B. Forster. 1771-2. 2
vols. 8vo.--The author of this work was a M. Bossu; who also
published, a few years afterwards, Nouveaux Voyages dans l'Amerique
Septentrionale. Amsterdam. 8vo.--The first of these works is chiefly
interesting from the minute details into which it enters respecting
the Illinois territory. Mr. Forster's translation contains a
catalogue of American plants.
828. Voyage en Californie. Par l'Abbé Chappe D'Auteroche.
Paris, 1778. 4to.--The city of Mexico, as well as California, is here
described in an interesting manner. As concerns the latter, this work
may be regarded as a standard one.
829. The History of Mexico; to which are added, Dissertations on
the Land, Animals, &c. Translated from the Italian of Clavigero,
by C. Cullen. 1787. 2 vols. 4to.--Besides natural history, there is
in this work much learned research on the ancient history of
Mexico.
THE WEST INDIES.
830. Histoire Generale des Antilles. Par le P. Dututie. 1667-1671.
4 vols. 4to.--This work is very full in all the branches of natural
history, and is by no means uninstructive on intellectual and moral
geography.
831. Voyages aux Antilles, &c., 1767-1802. Par J.B. Le Blond.
Paris, 1813. 8vo.--Statistics, climate, geology, mineralogy,
diseases, and manners, are the principal topics of this work, and are
treated of with ability and interest.
832. Voyages aux Isles de Trinidad, &c. Par J.J.D. Laraysee.
Paris, 1813. 2 vols. 8vo.--The first volume relates to Trinidad: the
second to Tobago, Cumana, Guiana, and Margarita. The soil, climate,
productions, and occasionally the natural history and geology of
these parts are here treated of.
833. Baudin Voyage aux Isles Teneriffe la Trinite, Porto Rico,
&c. 2 vols. 8vo. Paris, 1810.--To these travels Sonnini has added
some valuable notes.
834. Voyage d'un Suisse dans differentes Colonies de l'Amerique.
1783. 8vo.--Martinique and St. Domingo are particularly described,
and the mineralogy of the latter fully entered into.
835. Bryan Edwards' History of the British Colonies in the West
Indies, and the French Colony in St. Domingo. 1801. 3 vols.
8vo.--This work justly bears an excellent character, and is very full
and minute on almost every topic connected with these islands.
836. Histoire de St. Domingue. Par le P. Charlevoix. Paris, 1722.
2 vols. 4to.--This work, drawn up chiefly from the memoirs of the
missionaries, treats of the political, military, and moral state of
the island, and more briefly of its produce, animals, &c.--This
briefness is compensated in the following work:
837. Essai sur I'Histoire Naturelle de St. Domingue. Par le P.
Nicolson. Paris, 1766. 8vo.
838. Ed. Long's History of Jamaica. 3 vols. 4to. 1774.--A work of
sterling merit, and if read in conjunction with the following to
supply the natural history of the island, will leave little to be
known respecting this important island.
839. Pat. Brown's Civil and Natural History of Jamaica. 1756.
folio.
840. Ligon's History of Barbadoes. 1695. 8vo.
841. Labat Voyage aux Isles de l'Amerique. La Haye, 1724. 6 vols.
12mo.--This is esteemed the best work of Labat, and it certainly is
very instructive in all that relates to Martinique, Guadaloupe, St.
Vincent, St. Thomas, St. Lucia, St. Eustatius, &c.
842. Voyage à la Martinique. Par Chauvalson. Paris, 1763.
4to.--Natural history, meteorology, agriculture, and manners.
843. Account of St. Michael, one of the Azores. By Dr.
Webster.--This work, which is published in America, contains an
interesting description of St. Michael, particularly in what relates
to its natural history and geology.
SOUTH AMERICA.
844. Preliminar al Tomo primero de las Memorias
Historico-Physicas, Critico-Apologeticas, de la America Meridional.
Par D.J.E. Lamo Zaputa. Cadiz, 1759. 8vo.
845. Reise eineger Missionarien in Sud America. Von C. Gott. Von
Murr. Nurem. 1785. 8vo.
846. Depon's Travels in South America, 1801-4. 2 vols. 8vo.--The
Caraccas, Venezuela, Guyana, Cumana, are the principal objects of
this work; the rural economy, the political and commercial situation
of these parts at this period, and the manners of the Spanish
Americans are here treated of in a superior manner.
847. Nouvelle Description de la France Equinoctiale. Par Pierre
Barrere. Paris, 1743. 12mo.
848. Essai sur l'Histoire Naturelle de la France Equinoctiale. Par
P. Barrere. Paris, 1749. 2 vols. 8vo.--The former of these works is
chiefly confined to a description of the natives, their weapons,
manners, mode of life, &c.: the latter work is full on the
natural history of Guyana.
849. Bancroft's Essay on the Natural History of Guyana. 1769.
8vo.--Besides natural history, this work may be consulted with
advantage on the manners, &c. of the natives.
850. Stedman's Narrative of a Five-Years' Expedition against the
Revolted Negroes of Surinam, 1772-7. 2 vols. 4to.--There is an air of
romance in several parts of this work, which, though it adds to its
interest, raises suspicions of its accuracy and faithfulness, and
that it has been in the hands of a trading editor; still it is a work
from which a lively picture may be obtained of Surinam and its
inhabitants.
851. Tableau de Cayenne. Paris, 1793. 8vo.--Climate, produce, mode
of culture, manners and nautical observations form the principal
topics of this work.
852. Narrative of a Voyage to Brazil. By Th. Lindley. 1804.
8vo.--This work contains much information regarding the political,
commercial, and domestic state of the Brazilians, with some notices
on natural history. As Brazil used to be visited by our ships before
we obtained the Cape, on their voyage to the East Indies and China,
much information may be gained from several voyages to the latter,
especially from the accounts of Lord Macartney's Embassy by Staunton
and Barrow.
853. Luccock's Notes on Rio Janeiro, and the Southern Parts of
Brazil. 1820. 4to.--Mr. Luccock resided eleven years in Brazil, and
he seems to have been a careful observer; his work gives much new and
important information on agriculture, statistics, commerce, mines,
manners, &c., but it is heavily written.
854. Koster's Travels in the Brazils. 1816. 4to.--This work,
together with Luccock's, Henderson's, and Mawe's, comprize a body of
information on Brazil, nearly complete on all points except natural
history, and that must be sought in Prince Maximilian's Travels.
855. History of Paraguay. By Charlevoix. 1760. 2 vols. 8vo.--This
work is full on the plants, animals, fruits, &c., of this
country; and is particularly interesting from the account it gives of
the celebrated and singular Jesuit establishment in Paraguay.
856. Voyages dans l'Amerique Meridionale, 1781-1801. Par Don F. de
Azara. 4 vols. 8vo. Paris, 1809.--The author, who was commissioner of
the lines of the Spanish frontier in Paraguay, gives in this work
much information on the climate, soil, &c. of countries little
known; and the value of it is enhanced by the notes of Cuvier and
Sonnini on natural history.
857. Relation de la Voyage dans les Provinces de la Plata. 8vo.
Paris, 1819.
858. Historia de Abifponibus. Autore Dobutzhoffen. Vienna, 1784.
8vo.--This work has lately been translated into English: had it been
carefully and judiciously abridged it would have been acceptable, but
it is tiresome from its extreme minuteness on uninteresting
points.
859. Historia del Descubriniento y Conquesta del Peru. Par August
de Zarate. Anvers, 1555. 8vo.--This work is not merely historical,
but it also embraces many interesting particulars on physical
geography, and the manners, religion, &c., of the Peruvians.
860. Histoire des Incas, traduit de l'Espagnole de Garcilasso de
la Vega. Amsterdam, 1737. 2 vols. 4to.--The interest of this work
arises from its accuracy and fullness on the laws, government,
religion, &c., of the ancient Peruvians. To this French
translation is added a history of the conquest of Florida.
861. A Voyage to the South Sea along the Coasts of Chili and Peru,
1712-14. By Mr. Frezier. 1717. 4to.--The object for which Mr. Frezier
was sent related to the defence of Peru and Chili; but he also enters
fully into an account of the mines and the mode of working them, and
into a description of manners, domestic life, &c.
862. Journal du Voyage fait à l'Equateur. Par M. de la
Condamine. Paris, 1751. 4to.--Besides the detail of astronomical
observations, this work is interesting from the personal narrative of
the labours of the academician, and instructive on several points of
physical and moral geography.
863. Humboldt, Voyage aux Régions Equinoctiales du Nouveau
Continent, 1799-1804. 6 vols. 8vo.
864. Humboldt, Relation Historique de son Voyage aux
Régions Equinoctiales du Nouveau Continent. 2 vols. 4to.
865. Humboldt, Essai Politique sur le Royaume de la Nouvelle
Espagne, Paris, 5 vols. 8vo. 1811.--Perhaps no traveller ever
equalled Humboldt in the possession and exercise of such an union of
qualifications requisite to render travels instructive and
interesting; nor would it be easy to name any travels which have so
completely exhausted the subject of them, as those, the titles of
which we have given, if taken in connexion with the more purely
scientific appendages to them.
866. A Voyage to South America. By Don George Juan and Don Ant. de
Ulloa. 1758. 2 vols. 8vo.--Peru, Chili, Carthagena, Porto Bello, and
Panama, are described in these volumes with great talent and science
with regard to their natural history, climate, and productions; and
together with the civil, political, and domestic life of the
inhabitants, and various other topics.
867. Helm's Travels from Buenos Ayres by Potosi to Lima, 1806.
12mo.--Natural history, and chiefly geology and mineralogy, with a
very particular account of the mines of Potosi.
868. Compendio della Istoria Geografica, Naturale e Civile de
Chili. Bologna, 1776. 8vo.
869. Chiliduga sive res Chilenses. Opera Bern. Havestad. Munster,
1777-79. 8vo.--Natural history, the character of the inhabitants,
their music and language are here treated of in a superior
manner.
870. Molina's Geographical, Natural, and Civil History of Chili,
1809. 2 vols. 8vo.--An excellent work, which fulfils what the title
promises.
POLYNESIA.
871. An Historical Collection of the several Voyages and
Discoveries in the South Pacific Ocean. By Alex. Dalrymple. 1770. 2
vols. 4to.
872. Captain James Burney's Chronological History of the Voyages
and Discoveries in the South Seas. 5 vols. 4to. 1803-16.--Both these
works are by men well qualified by science, learning, research, and
devotedness to their object, to perform well what they undertook on
any subject connected with geography and discovery.
873. Keate's Account of the Pelew Islands. 1788. 4to.
874. A Missionary Voyage to the South Pacific Ocean. By Captain
Wilson. 1799. 4to.--Otaheite is the principal subject of this
work.
875. Mariner's Account of the Tonga Islands in the South Pacific.
1817. 2 vols. 8vo.--This is a very full, accurate, and interesting
picture of the manners and character of a singular people, drawn from
long and attentive observation on the spot.
AUSTRALASIA.
876. Histoire des Navigations aux Terres Australes. Par le
President de Brosses. Paris, 1756. 2 vols. 4to--This work is more
highly prized on the continent than with us: it certainly is not
equal to some of our histories of voyages either in judgment,
accuracy of information, or extensive views.
877. Relation de deux Voyages dans les Mers Australes et des
Indes. 1771-73. Par M. de Kerguelen. Paris, 1781. 8vo.
878. Voyage à la Nouvelle Guinée. Par Sonnerat.
Paris, 1776. 4to.--Natural history, and especially zoology and
ornithology.
879. Voyage de Découvertes aux Terres Australes. 1800-4.
Par Peron. 2 vols. 4to. Paris, 1811.
880. Captain Th. Forrest's Voyage to New Guinea and the Moluccas,
1774-6. Dublin, 1779. 4to.--This work supplies what is wanting in
Sonneret's, as it is full on the physical and moral character of the
inhabitants, and on their language, mode of life, and trade.
881. Governor Phillips's Voyage to Botany Bay. 1789. 4to.
882. Collins' Account of the English Colony in New South Wales.
1801. 2 vols. 4to.
883. Wentworth's Statistical, Historical, and Political
Description of New South Wales, and Van Dieman's Land. 1819. 8vo.
884. Oxley's Journey of Two Expeditions into the Interior of New
South Wales. 1820. 4to.--These British colonies are improving so
rapidly that no description can long be full and accurate. Mr.
Wentworth's work is, we believe, as good an account as we have; and
Mr. Oxley's is interesting from giving an authentic description of
the interior of this singular country. A perusal and comparison of
the best works that have been published regarding it from the date of
that of Collins to the present time, would exhibit a rapidity of
improvement, of which there are few examples.
885. Some Account of New Zealand. By John Savage. 1808. 8vo.--A
judicious and instructive work on the manners, religion, and
character of the natives. Further information on these points, and
likewise on the productions of New Zealand, may be gathered from
Captain Cruise's Ten Months' Residence there, just published.
