Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is the product of a scientific expedition to Iceland in the 18th century. It is one of the earliest published accounts by outsiders of the island's nature and culture. The author was a physician and naturalist, and he traveled with a group of other scientists, including the famed botanist, Joseph Banks. The book is written in a lively and engaging style, and it includes detailed descriptions of the island's geography, geology, natural history, and people. The account also includes the author's observations on the social and political conditions of the time. The author was particularly interested in the effects of climate on the physical and cultural development of the Icelandic people. The book helped to shape European Enlightenment understandings of these northern peoples and their place within the concept of a shared humanity. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780282385750_0
