Octavo, burgundy cloth (hardcover), gilt letters, xx, 251 pp. Very Good+ in a Very Good+, mylar protected dust jacket. From dust jacket: John Ware grew up on Florida's Gulf Coast. After high school, he became a licensed pilot maneuvering large vessels in and out of the rivers, the bays, and the harbors of that coast. Warelwell knew the safety of those vessels and crews depended, in large part, on the tools of his trade -- reliable charts and accurate sailing directions and instructions accompanying them; and he grew to appreciate the knowledge and skills it took to make them. It seems natural that Ware should have become interested in the first man to accurately survey and chart the Gulf Coast -- George Gauld. Britain had been ceded all of North America east of the Mississippi River after her victory in the Seven Years War. And, just as today, the safety of her vessels in these waters made urgent the need for reliable charts and sailing directions. Gauld arrived on the Florida Gulf Coast in August of 1 64, and for sixteen years he explored and charted that same coastline that John Ware was to pilot for so many years, from as far west as Galveston Bay in Texas to the tip of Florida's peninsula. Gauld's pioneering accomplishments, however, went unnoticed, often pirated and attributed to others, and those few charts that were published appeared only after his early death. This biography, an attempt to establish Gauld's proper place in the history of North American cartography, is the result of many years of research. It includes a list of all Gauld's known work and eleven double-page, fold-out examples of his manuscripts, drafts, sketches, and charts. Captain Ware's work also is published only after his untimely death. His manuscript was completed and supervised through the press by Robert R. Rea, another eminent historian of the Gulf Coast and a professor of history at Auburn University.
