THE NARRATIVE OF A VOYAGE OF DISCOVERY, performed in His Majesty s Vessel the Lady Nelson, of Sixty Tons Burthen, with Sliding Keels, in the Years 1800, 1801, and 1802, to New South Wales. By James Grant, Lieutenant in the Royal Navy. Including Remarks on the Cape de Verd Islands, Cape of Good Hope, the hitherto Unknown Parts of New Holland, discovered by him in his Passage (the first ever attempted from Europe) through the Streight separating that Island from the land discovered by Van Dieman [sic]: Together with Various Details of his Interviews with the Natives of New South Wales; Observations on the Soil, Natural Productions, &c. not known or very slightly treated of by former Navigators; with his Voyage home in the Brig Anna Josepha round Cape Horn; and an Account of the Present State of the Falkland Islands. To which is prefixed an Account of the Origin of Sliding Keels, and the Advantages resulting from their Use; With an Appendix of Orders, Certificates, and Examinations, relative to the Trial Cutter. The Whole illustrated with elegant Engravigs. London: Printed by C. Roworth, Bell Yard, Fleet Street, for T. Egerton, Military Library, Whitehall. 1803.

Egerton; 1803. ***Ferguson 375; Wantrup 75; Hill, page 126. This copy is complete with the rare List of Encouragers leaf AND the blank leaf d4, neither mentioned by Ferguson, and one or both not present in most copies. The plates and chart were all engraved by S. I. Neele, 352 Strand and it seems that the work was not in fact published until 1804 as while the coloured plate of the Crested Cockatoo and the plate of the Lady Nelson in the Thames are dated July 1st, 1803 and the chart is dated Dec. 27th 1803, the remaining plates (except that of the sliding keels which is undated) are all dated Jan. 10th 1804. Never having been rebound, this copy has the plates all together, before the main text, with the result that the fine coloured plate of the Crested Cockatoo which almost invariably has the text offset across it, is here unmarked and in its original glory. The Lady Nelson was originally sent out for Matthew Flinders use on his circumnavigation of Australia, and accompanied him when he set off, but her slow sailing meant she was unable to keep up and was forced to turn back when she ran aground off the Queensland coast. The voyage included the first navigation of Bass Strait from West to East. The Lady Nelson was an experimental vessel, and her performance was of considerable interest to nautical science. Grant was given commmand rather than the designer Captain Schanck, as it was thought that the experiment would be given a fairer trial. The sliding keels did not, however, make the impact expected in spite of the advantage they presented for surveying in shallow waters. #21808 A$17,500.00

(Melbourne); The Miegunyah Press; (1997). ***Edition limited to 1000 copies for sale. Number Thirteen in the second Miegunyah Press series. A magnificent production; a longoverdue detailed analysis of Captain James Cook s ship, fully placed in the context of her time. The Endeavour is one of the most famous ships in maritime history, yet surprisingly few details of her were known to any but a small number of maritime historians. More than twenty-five years before publication of this book, Ray Parkin, seaman, author and artist was amazed to find how little was known and recorded of this ship, and set out to document everything he could discover. His researches were encouraged by that renowned scholar and chronicler of James Cook, Professor J. C. Beaglehole. The result is the most painstaking study of the Endeavour yet undertaken and a unique account of a great voyage of discovery: the passage

64 Gaston Renard Fine and Rare Books Short List Number 65 2013. of the Endeavour up the east coast of Australia (then called New Holland) in the year 1770. Written for the scholar, mariner and layperson alike, Ray Parkin has recreated for the reader the very experience of being on board H. M. Bark Endeavour. With meticulous research, he reveals what she looked like, how she sailed, how she smelled; all aspects of daily life on board. No part of the ship or her functioning is too insignificant for his enquiries. How many strands of yarn were there in the ships cable? (954) Did the ship have a lightning conductor? (Yes) What was the diameter of the main mast? (21 inches). The work is divided into two sections: Part I, The World of the Ship, details the sailor and his environment, the Captain, the ship herself, scurvy and provisioning, the ship s company, and remarks on individuals come to notice through misfortune or by their sins and adventures. The text is accompanied by a series of plans and figures depicting the ship s architecture and construction, her deck plan, rigging, sails, armament, boats, cables, anchors and accommodation. Fifteen of these are reproduced as large folding full-size sketches in the accompanying folding case. Part II, The Voyage (up the east coast of Australia), is a masterly synthesis of the Ships Log and the journals of James Cook, Sydney Parkinson and Joseph Banks, supplemented where illuminating and appropriate, by extracts from the journals of other members of the ship s complement, and with an interpretive commentary and clearly drawn explanatory charts. The Author, Ray Parkin, was born in Melbourne and joined the Royal Australian Navy in 1928, spending eighteen years in the service. He was on board HMAS Perth in 1942 when the cruiser was sunk in Sunda Strait, killing two thirds of her complement. After the sinking Mr Parkin spent three and a half years as a Japanese prisoner of war in Java, on the Burma-Siam railway and in coal mines in Japan. His vivid accounts of these experiences in World War II were published by the Hogarth Press: Out of the Smoke (1960), Into the Smother (1963), and The Sword and the Blossom (1967). At the end of the war Mr Parkin completed a fine arts course. He worked on the Melbourne waterfront until his retirement in 1975 when he went to London to continue his research on the Endeavour. H. M. Bark Endeavour, is an absorbing book: discursive, erudite, at times poetic; full of wisdom, insight and information. It is an ESSENTIAL companion and supplement to the standard works on Cook s voyages. Sadly, Ray Parkin died in May, 2005. #49819 A$450.00
