Seller's Description:
Fine. Book First edition. One of 350 copies hand-printed by Patrick Reagh. Scarce. Newly translated and edited by August Frugé and Neal Harlow. Small quarto. xxix, [1], 252pp. Tipped-on frontis in color, tipped-on coat of arms in color, and 9 plates and illustrations. Bibliography and index. Printed letterpress. Gray patterned boards with bright red linen spine, printed paper spine label. A very fine and bright copy, as new, with the original plain white dust jacket. The story of the Breton sea captain, who failed to sell his cargo in the expected three or four months and sailed his ship, the Héros up and down the Alta and Baja California coasts from Fort Ross to Cabo San Lucas for nearly two years, visiting most of the missions, including the inland islands of San Luis Rey, San Gabriel, and Santa Clara, as well as all the ports, presidios, and pueblos. Crossing the Pacific he spent two busy months in the Sandwich Islands. Back home in Saint-Malo he revised his journal into a long book, published in France in 1834-35. Don Augusto (given this name by the Californios) was almost the last literate visitor to see the California missions in the days just before they were despoiled. His account is quite equal to and fuller than Robinson's Life in California. This work went out-of-print immediately upon publication.
