Excerpt from Journal of a Residence and Tour in the Republic of Mexico in the Year 1826, Vol. 2 of 2: With Some Account of the Mines of That Country The whole of this Cuesta is thickly wooded by the broad-leaved oak for the lower half, and towards the summit by fine pines and the Encino, on whose branches I remarked abundance of para sitic plants, particularly two kinds which closely resembled our English misletoe. In the course of my day's ride I observed above thirty trees of tall firs and oaks lying Split and shivered to the ground by lightning. Woodpeckers of many beautiful varieties here abounded, particularly the species with a scarlet crest, and a very large kind nearly the size of a Bantam fowl.

Seller's Description:
As New with no dust jacket. 1108070922. 304 pages. Stamped Damaged on verso title page. Otherwise new.; Paperback; Octavo; The British naval officer George Francis Lyon (1795__1832) survived extremes of African heat and Arctic cold during his colourful career. Remembered chiefly for the engaging journals he kept, and for his watercolours of the Arctic, he was fascinated by the indigenous peoples of the lands he explored, notably being tattooed by Inuit and eating raw caribou and seal meat with them. In 1826 he sailed to Mexico, then recovering from its war of independence, to serve as a commissioner for an English mining company. His vivid and often entertaining two-volume account of his experiences was published in 1828. In Volume 2, Lyon encounters notorious bandits outside Guadalajara, ponders the potential navigation of rivers for commercial shipping, and writes of a visit to the Guadalajara theatre: 'had it not been for the universal smoking, and the silence and good manners of the audience, I might have almost fancied myself in England'.
