SOUTH DEERFIELD, MASS. — Conducted in two sessions, New England Book Auctions offered more than 450 lots of travel and Americana books, prints and periodicals, early and fine books, lithographs and selections from the inventory of Periodyssey, Northampton, Mass. The highest-achieving lot in either session was a record of Captain Vancouver’s survey of the North Pacific and North Atlantic Oceans. Published in London in 1798, this first edition of A Voyage of Discovery to the North Pacific Ocean, and Round the World…, included three volumes plus a corresponding atlas. Printed for G.G. and J. Robinson, Paternoster-Row and J. Edwards, Pall-Mall, this record outlines the voyage performed “Under the Command of Captain George Vancouver” in the years 1790-95. Considered “one of the most important voyages for the history and the cartography of the Northwest coast in general and of Alaska in particular,” the documentation of this journey sold to a buyer in England for $10,800, including buyer’s premium. Additional results from the March 25 and April 2 sales will be in a future issue.
