New York: N. D. C. Hodges, Publisher, 1891. 513 pages and 20+ black and white illustrations, 13 maps (one folding). Alpheus Spring Packard (1839-1905) was a zoologist and geologist at Brown University for most of his professional life and is now most celebrated as an entomologist. Before that distinguished career, he was invited to travel and study on two expeditions to Labrador--the first in 1860 between his junior and senior years at Bowdoin College, the second in 1864 after receiving his MD at Bowdoin. His notes and journals must have been highly detailed because they enabled him to produce this extensive report almost 30 years later. On the front free endpaper Packard's wife signed and inscribed the book to her niece Fanny in June 1914. The book is in about very good condition: generally clean and tight, with a small water stain at the foot of the front hinge and the first few leaves; pages lightly toned; tiny bit of cloth loss at head and foot of spine.. SIGNED. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Book.
