[Signed] [First Edition] Autograph letter signed by explorer and scientist Filippo De Filippi (1869-1938) about his expedition to Pakistan, India and 545.58 CAD DE FILIPPI, Filippo (1869-1938). Autograph letter signed, Leh, 13 March 1914 regarding the expedition to Baltistan, Pakistan, Ladakh, India and Xinjiang, China (1913-1914). Four pages on bifolium, written in ink, with integral folds as issued. Minor edge wear and light creasing consistent with use. Toning along the top edge. Very good. A substantial and highly detailed field letter written during De Filippi's major Central Asian scientific expedition of 1913-1914, reporting directly on the progress of survey, wireless, and logistical operations across northern India and the Karakoram region. The letter describes the successful completion of work at Skardu in February 1914, including a 'very successful period of wireless time-signals transmission' used for the determination of longitude. De Filippi recounts subsequent movements through Kargil, the establishment of further geophysical stations, and preparations for the transport of large bodies of men and supplies across high mountain passes, including the planned movement of 'a first batch of 300 men'. He refers in detail to the determination of longitude by wireless methods, gravity work on the Rupshu plains, and the continued extension of stations toward Leh and Shyok. Particular attention is given to cooperation with local authorities, including repeated references to the Durbar officials at Kargil, whom De Filippi praises for their efficiency, impartiality, and personal assistance in securing supplies, transport, and escorts. De Filippi's expedition to Baltistan, Ladakh, and Xinjiang (1913-1914) was one of the most ambitious multidisciplinary scientific enterprises of the period, encompassing geodesy, gravity measurement, wireless longitude determination, geology, topography, ethnography, and anthropology. Its results were later published in seventeen volumes and remain foundational in the scientific study of Central Asia.

[Signed] [First Edition] The Natural History of Secession; or, Despotism and Democracy at Necessary, Eternal, Exterminating War Goodwin, Thomas

[Signed] [First Edition] The Natural History of Secession; or, Despotism and Democracy at Necessary, Eternal, Exterminating War Goodwin, Thomas 438.18 CAD Laid into this volume is the author's handwritten letter, from Skowhegan, Maine, to "Hon. H. Hamlin"--presumably Vice-President Hannibal Hamlin, also of Maine. The purpose of the letter is to present the book to Hamlin, asking him to "not be at trouble to answer this" until he has read it. Thomas Shepard Goodwin was an attorney and an ardent anti-secessionist. His work considers the origins of the American experiment, the rise of sectionalism, and argues that the American Civil War was the inevitable result of the struggle between democratic ideals of the Founders and the authoritarian despotism necessary to maintain the institution of slavery. Bound in dark blue pebbled cloth over boards with gilt-stamped spine and blind-stamped rules and ornaments to both boards, pale yellow endpapers. Fine condition. Original cloth over boards.

The author, in December 1917, sailed to India via South Africa and Singapore. He describes his stops at Durban, Natal, and Singapore before relating his visits to several cities in India: Madras, Calcutta, Patna, Benares, Agra, Bombay, Mahabaleshwar, and Delhi. Gordon had attended the Durbar for Edward VII in Delhi in 1901, and he contrasts his experiences of India then with the situation as he found it - concluding with descriptions of the influenza outbreak that claimed innumerable victims each day of his visit.

Finish: Toasty notes of coconut and almond linger alongside creamy vanilla, silky caramel, and elegant oak char. Distillery Information It was founded in 1824 and has operated almost continuously since. The distillery remained open throughout the Great Depression and its only closure came during World War II.
