August 1583 in Orléans; gest. 11. Dezember 1652 in Paris) war ein Jesuit sowie berühmter Chronologe und Historiker. (...) Er lehrte an verschiedenen Kollegien der Jesuiten und wurde 1621 Professor der Theologie in Paris. Nach Denis Pétau sind die Annales Petaviani, der Mondkrater Petavius und die Petavius-Rillen benannt." (Wikipedia) "Louis Cellot (Cellotius) (1588 - 20 October 1658) was a French Jesuit, known as a theological writer. He was born in Paris, and entered the Society of Jesus in 1605. He was occupied in studied of Latin, Greek and Hebrew, and initially taught these subjects. He spent time at Rouen, and then La Flèche, before becoming provincial of his order in France. He died in Paris. He was a dramatist and poet, as well as a theological writer." (Wikipedia). Das Theater war ein wichtiges missionarisches Mittel für die Gegenreformation. "Jesuitentheater (auch Jesuitendrama) ist das katholische, lateinischsprachige Barockdrama der Jesuiten, das im 16. und 17. Jahrhundert besonders an jesuitischen Schulen gepflegt wurde. Die Aufführungen brachen mit den Traditionen der christlichen Verkündigung und bedienten sich weltlicher Unterhaltungskonzepte. (...) Die Patres produzierten massenhaft Theaterstücke - Jean-Marie Valentin zählte 7.650 Titel -, die innerhalb von 220 Jahren entstanden. Die Themen kreisten um Kirchengeschichte, christliche Märtyrer, Heiligenlegenden, Mission im fernen Osten und ähnliche religiöse und kirchliche Themen."

Description:
Excellent condition, but missing the original map that was originally included. 11 fine chromolithographic and 11 lithographic plates. Publication of this report was originally intended for 1861, but the Civil War intervened and prevented publication for another fifteen years. The expedition under Macomb went west from Santa Fe across northern New Mexico and Arizona to the Colorado. The whole drainage of the San Juan had been traced and the relationship of that river with the Colorado clearly established. More important, they had also established that the Green River united with the Grand to form the Colorado. The entire maze of intricate canyon country had been threaded, and its geography revealed for the first time. In addition, Newberry was able to establish numerous stratigraphic columns, and to trace the Triassic, Jurassic, and Carboniferous strata far out across the Colorado River. Newberry.introduced a new level of sophistication into the study of western geology.

The book is in excellent condition. The pages are white, of high quality, and the book smells pleasant. One page has a small easily overlooked punch-rip. Binding is good. Hardcover is green with black trim and gold embossed author and title only on the spine.The Dust Jacket is ripped and taped and has some insect damage and torn corners.What makes this second 1933 edition book especially interesting, is that it is signed, small and unpretentious, in fine black ink by the author.The book is written in Czechoslovakian.The story is a Czechoslovakian version of "Robinhood" of sorts, a blend of fact and magical fiction of the mythical or legendary Nikola Suhaj, (depending on who you believe).The story takes place in Ruthenia, mostly after, but also during the First World War. This region is forgotten, and people here are very poor and their only livelihood is the forests, where they say God lives, witches cast spells, and there are enchanted places where even the wildlife won't go.
