8vo., (7 2/8 x 5 inches). (Some spotting). Original green cloth decorated in blind. Provenance: Penciled ownership inscriptions of A. Tucker on the recto of the first blank and the title-page; duplicate library stamp of Andover-Harvard Theological Library on the verso of the title-page; Frank Sherwin Streeter (1918-2006) (Collection of Important Navigation, Pacific Voyages, Cartography and Science). First edition. "The title- "Los Gringos" - .used in Californai and Mexico to designate the descendants of the Anglo-Saxon race; the definition of the word is somewhat similar to that of Greenhorns, in modern parlance, or Mohawks in the days of the Spectator. Although many of the scenes were passed in the those countries, yet the narrative takes a wider range, and embraces portions of the South American Continent in Brazil, Chili, and Peru, together with visits to some of the groups of the Pacific at the Sandwich, Marquesas and Society Islands" (Wise "Preface"). "An officer in the United States Navy, Wise served on board the razee (cut-down sailing ship-of-line) "Independent" during the Mexican War. He narrates his experiences on an expedition sailing from Boston around Cape Horn, bound for Mexico and California to fight in the war. From Boston, the ship sailed down the coast of the Americas, making port at Rio de Janeiro, La Plata, Tierra del Fuego, and then Valparaiso, after rounding the Horn. Upon reaching the Californian and Mexican coasts, the "Independent" and the troops she carried engaged in hostilities with the Mexicans until the end of the war. Wise recorded many details of the actual fighting as well as other general incidents relating to his acquaintance with the Mexican people and their ways. At the end of the war, the vessel returned to Boston, stopping at Hawaii, the Marquesas, Tahiti, and then Callao, before again rounding Cape Horn" (Hill 1902). Howes W593.
