Leve golpe restaurado en punta superior trasera.- // Proc.: Sin datos.- // Refs.: Palau, 34229.- // Estupenda (y por ello apreciada) traducción francesa de la primera edición de la obra Introduccion a la Historia Natural y a la Geografia Fisica de España (Madrid, 1775, reed. 1782 y 1789). Bowles, abogado Irlandés, abandonó el derecho en su tierra natal y se afincó en París, dedicándose a los estudios de Historia natural. Allí le conoció el marino español Antonio de Ulloa quien, al ver los diarios científicos que había elaborado de sus viajes por Francia y Alemania, le animó a ir a España -donde vivió en Madrid y en Bilbao-, siendo al cabo contratado por el ministerio para labores científicas relacionadas con la minería y la Historia natural. La obra, además de recoger una descripción amena de sus desplazamientos por la península, es un genuino tratado de geología y minería de España, especialmente de las minas de cinabrio de las de Andalucía y el País vasco, y de la potencilidad de los antiguos volcanes. Se alternan así los comentarios de curiosidad como la descripción de la transhumancia de la mesta o la comparación de los pescados del Atlántico y del Mediterráneo ("no hace falta tener un paladar demasido fino para darse cuenta de la calidad de la textura y sabor del besugo vizcaino frente el valenciano"), con los de la composición del terreno, las industrias que podrían articularse en torno a los recursos geológicos o la mejor manera de extraer la mena de diferentes tipos de minerales, junto al hincapie en los nacederos de los grandes ríos peninsulares.
