A propos de cet article

Frontispiece map plus four other maps (3 folding) and two images (1 folding). Three quarter leather over red cloth with raised spine bands in black and red and printed in gilt. The limitation notice on the reverse of the title page reads as follows: "Se tiraron 3 ejemplares en papel 'Emblem Ledger', marcados con las letras A, B y C; 10 ejemplares en papel 'Cameo Plate', numerados del 1 al 10, y 520 en papel 'Biblios', numerados del 11 al 530". This copy bears the number 227. It may have been rebound in ¾ leather by the previous owner, one Santiago J. Illescas, whose rubber stamp appears on the half title and the title page. Very minor wear to extremities, one of the folding maps has separations at some of the folds (but it is all there, in otherwise very good condition, and neatly folded), three very small water spots on front cover, dampstain to top two inches of rear cover, very minor dampstain to half title page, dampstains to pp. 280-297, else very good and better with clean supple leather, bright black and red bands, and bright gilt. No dust jacket. According to Seamus O' Fogartaigh (IRISH MIGRATION STUDIES IN LATIN AMERICA, "Ireland and Mexico") Juan Augustin Morfi was "one of the most important explorers and historians of the late 1700s, who emigrated from Galicia in Spain to Mexico, where he became a Franciscan friar in 1761. He traveled extensively throughout Northern Mexico and described life as it was lived by the indigenous people in their pueblos. He also traced maps of some of the uncharted regions, and provided detailed accounts of the flora and fauna that he observed in his travels. His written account of his discoveries as an explorer and cartographer are to be found in his book, Viaje de Indios y diario del Nuevo Mexico (Mexico City: Bibliofilo Mexicanos, 1935). [This is] still an excellent source of information for those who are interested in the history of the regions now known as Texas and New Mexico,formerly the northern provinces of New Spain. Morfi also had a distinguished career as a theologian and lecturer, and occupied a leadership role in the affairs of the Franciscan Order in Mexico until his death in Mexico City in 1783." Robert Oscar de Vette wrote a Ph.D. thesis at Florida State University on the editor of this volume, Vito Allesio Robles, entitled "Biographer of Mexican Cities".…
