Description
JACQUEMONT Victor. Correspondance de Victor Jacquemont avec sa famille et plusieurs de ses amis, pendant son voyage en Inde (1828-1832). Paris: Librairie de H. Fournier, 1833. 2 volumes, half-leather bindings. Small crack at base of one joint, some foxing. Original first edition, complete with folding map at end of second volume. Victor JACQUEMONT died in Bombay during a scientific mission. A remarkable figure combining traveler, scholar, and man of the world. His correspondence, full of candor, humor, and skeptical wit yet also benevolence, was not intended for publication. Considered the first modern account of India.
