Omschrijving

""United States Exploring Expeditions"" is a historical account of the scientific and exploratory missions conducted by the United States government in the mid-19th century. The book, written by John Stilwell Jenkins, details the expeditions led by naval officer Charles Wilkes from 1838 to 1842, which explored the Pacific Ocean and the coastlines of South America, Antarctica, and the Pacific Islands. The book provides a detailed account of the planning and execution of the expeditions, as well as the scientific discoveries and cultural interactions that occurred during the voyages. Jenkins describes the challenges faced by the explorers, including harsh weather conditions, difficult terrain, and encounters with hostile indigenous peoples. The book also includes illustrations and maps that help to bring the expeditions to life and provide a visual representation of the discoveries made by the explorers. Overall, ""United States Exploring Expeditions"" offers a fascinating glimpse into a little-known chapter of American history and the pioneering spirit of the explorers who helped to shape our understanding of the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
