One of the fullest and most important collections of voyages in the English language First edition of Purchas his Pilgrimes, with the preferred, greatly enlarged, fourth edition of the Pilgrimage; together this is the desired state of the complete set of Purchas's remarkable collection of travel and exploration narratives from ancient times up to and including the recent accounts of Virginia by John Smith. This is a most attractive set. The Pilgrimes was conceived as a continuation of the work of Richard Hakluyt - Purchas's "great predecessor in the memorializing of English travel narratives" (ODNB) - based in part on Hakluyt's remaining manuscripts, which Purchas had acquired about 1620, augmented by almost 20 years' collecting oral and written accounts of travels in Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Americas. Although, as ODNB notes, "unlike Hakluyt, Purchas attempted to construct an argument upon geographical and historical evidence that was…

Description:
Indianapolis: Dog Ear Publishing, January 2013. Trade Paperback. Fine. Slight reading wear to corners, otherwise pristine. Not from a library. No remainder mark. Not clipped. Not damaged. Suitable for gifting. 163 pages. The 25 authors of this book were volunteers in the first Peace Corps rural community development project in Africa: Sierra Leone, 1965-67. They are also the first group to tell a collective story of Peace Corps volunteers, anywhere. The Peace Corps was in its infancy then, and memories of John Kennedy were strong among the young volunteers. Sierra Leone was also in its infancy in the first few years after independence, before military coups and tribal warfare became common. The authors forthrightly recount their feelings of loneliness and isolation, and their frightening experiences with secret societies and witchcraft, but their uniquely optimistic "can-do" American attitude brought most through a great life experience.

This was his first, and it was the most popular, going through several editions. This is a good copy as all plates, including the frontispiece, have been excised. The boards show moderate wear, heavier at the spine ends. The front hinge is cracked. The text block is mainly clean with a few marks of unknown origin.
