  • The Journal of the Royal Geographical Society 1913 July – Cmdr. E. R. G. R. Evans – The British Antarctic Expedition, 1910-1913

    The Journal of the Royal Geographical Society 1913 July – Cmdr. E. R. G. R. Evans – The British Antarctic Expedition, 1910-1913

    A very good copy of The Journal of the Royal Geographical Society, July 1913, containing “The British Antarctic Expedition, 1910-1913″ by Cmdr. E. R. G. R. Evans.

    Over seventeen pages, Cmdr. Evans explores the fateful expedition that saw the death of Capt. Scott, but explores the subject from a narrative and scientific perspective, commemorating Scott, not through an examination of the man himself (Evans notes this perspective has already been well covered), but through the excellence of Scott’s preparation and vision, aided by fine charts and maps. Also very importantly narrated is the reception of Capt. Scott’s comrades at the Albert Hall in London

    Also in this edition; an examination, by Vilhjalmur Stefansson, with a large colour map, of the Canadian Arctic Expedition; and, an exploration, with large map and plates, of the Monte Bello Islands with companion large map of Barrow Island and the area west of the Dampier Peninsua, prepared by P. D. Montague.

  • The Journal of the Royal Geographical Society 1913 August – Cmdr. Herbert A. Edwards – Frontier Work on the Bolivia-Brazil Boundary, 1911-1912

    The Journal of the Royal Geographical Society 1913 August – Cmdr. Herbert A. Edwards – Frontier Work on the Bolivia-Brazil Boundary, 1911-1912

    A very good copy of The Journal of the Royal Geographical Society, August 1913, containing “Frontier Work on the Bolivia-Brazil Boundary, 1911-1912″ by Cmdr. Herbert A. Edwards.

    With accompanying marvelous and large survey map and statistical examination, Cmdr. Edwards provides an account of the work done along the Bolivia-Brazil border per the requirements outlined in the Treaty of Petropolis (1903), designed to end tensions between the two nations regarding highly desirable, and previously contentious, areas of rubber during the so-called “rubber boom” of the period.

    Captain Scott Fund – This edition contains also an analytical breakdown of amounts received and anticipated for the Capt. Scott fund, for the purposes of assisting the widows and orphans of Scott and his comrades, and a memorial to be erected in their honour.

    Also in this edition; a detailed geographical study of Mozambique conducted by Arthur Holmes and Alexander Wray with accompanying plates and sketch-map; and, a narrative concerning Southern Jubaland (Somalia) with map and plates by I.N. Dracopoli.
