A serious proposal. First edition, first issue. 3 volumes. Octavo (200 by 120mm), 3 folding engraved charts; contemporary tan calf, rebacked preserving the original spines. The exceptionally rare first issue, with the dedication leaf to Charles Townsend ("To the Reader" on the verso), and three large charts by Thomas Phinn after… Dider Robert de Vaugondy. That of Australia being "of great interest, particularly when compared with the Tasman map of 1644. Although Van Diemen's Land is still shown as part of the mainland, New Zealand and New Guinea are already known to be separate lands and in fact the outline of Australia is complete except for the eastern coast, yet to be charted by Cook." (Davidson). Callander based his work on de Brosses's, 'Histoire des Navigations aux Terres Australe' (1756), and his chapter 'Of the method of forming colonies in the Terra Australis, and the Advantages that may be expected to result to Great Britain from such Establishments in that Hemisphere' gave credence to "a serious proposal to establish a British penal settlement in the South Pacific, which is printed at the end of Volume III. It was seen as a basis for further exploration in New Holland, and significantly influenced British thinking" (Brown). There are sixty-three voyages included in the work, extending from Vespucci, to Pelsaert, to Tasman, to Vlamingh, Anson, and Byron. Literature: Davidson, 'A Book Collector's Notes on items relating to the Discovery of Australia, The First Settlement and the Early Coastal Exploration of the Continent', page 35; ' Hill, 'The Hill Collection of Pacific Voyages', 240.
