Book First Edition Print on Demand
Paperback. Condition: Good condition. NOT a library discard (illustrator). First Edition. Paris: Imprimerie Nationale, 1925. From the private library of Lewis W. MacNaughton, with his ink stamp on the front wrap and first blank page. For more on MacNaughton, see below. This is the original 1925 first edition -- NOT print on demand or modern reprint. Cover is in Good condition only, with chips and wear along the spine and edges. Rear wrap is nearly separated, but barely hanging on. Internal condition is Very Good. Illustrated with portraits and several maps -- most folding, and an extra large folding map at the end. Bound in the original tan wraps, stamped in black. From the DeGolyer MacNaughton website: "Lewis MacNaughton was an extraordinarily talented geologist who, like [Everette Lee] DeGolyer, had also gained solid work experience overseas prior to obtaining his college degree. In 1928, DeGolyer, the then-president of Amerada Petroleum Corporation, hired the scholarly, methodical MacNaughton. Upon DeGolyer s retirement in 1932 (at the young age of 46), financial institutions and oil companies continued to call DeGolyer, ceaselessly seeking advice based on his scientific professionalism and non-provincial perspective. Faced with the inevitability of an increasing demand for reliable, realistic consultation, DeGolyer prevailed upon MacNaughton to join him in the first petroleum consulting organization to provide services on an international scope. Together, the two men forged a firm that would become the petroleum industry s most sought-after advisor." From a review of the book by G. S.: "Analyse de l'admirable atlas du Colorado par F. V. HAYDEN (1829-87) com,pris dans le ( Survey of the Territories )) publie par ordre du gouvernement americain en 1877. Cette analyse minutieuse est accompagn6e de nombreuses illustrations. L'exemplaire que l'auteur a bien voulu m'ienvoyer porte la mention: (( Ceci n'est qu'un acte de justice; l'apologie d'un chef-d'ceuvre oublie. ) I1 est intAressant de noter que les lacunes de cet atlas, par exemple celles relatives au sud-est de l'Utah, entre la frontiere du Colorado et le fleuve Colorado, ont g peine ete comblees; les surfaces laissees en blanc sur les cartes les plus recentes ne se montrent guere moins etendues, aujourd'hui encore, qu'elles ne Vi'taient en 1877! - L'auteur a ajoute a cette analyse une reduction d'.un dessin inedit execute par HF NRI DELACHAUX vers 1886, d'apres l'Atlas du Colorado: c'est une excellente image du relief du Colorado. Cet HENRI DELACIIAUX (Neuchatel, 1864-1908), devenu citoyen argentin en 1888, est surtout connu par une grande carte murale de la Republique Argentine publiee en 1906. - Pour continuer jusqu'a nos jours l'histoire de la cartographie du Colorado, l'auteur nous don,ne aussi (pp. 75-7) une description des excellents (( Guidebooks of the Western United States )), oeuvre de vulgarisation scientifique en 5 fascicules (1915-22), dont 3 interessent en partie le Colorado. II est tres regrettable toutefois que ces ouvrages ne soient pas mieux connus du public amiricain. Les ecoles du Colorado devraient les faire connaitre a leurs elMves et les fascicules devraient atre mis en vente dans les gares.". First Edition. Softcover. Good condition.
