English language. More than thousand years ago, Viking sailors from Greenland and Iceland discovered a new continent in the West--America. This is fact since the finding of Norse remains at L'Anse aux Meadows in Northern Newfoundland, Canada. Shortly after the discovery of that new land in the western sea, a settlement expedition started from Greenland, two old Norse sagas telling us so. But where on this new continent had they settled? And what has happened there? This is one of the few remaining questions open in human history! The author has spend years of research to answer this question. In his research he found the ancient Vinland, Vinland the Good and also Ho'p, the first European settlement on American soil ever. The Vikings settled in the lower St. Lawrence region in what is today Quebec, Canada. This fact is now proven beyond any shadow of doubt. The key to this conclusion lies in the Icelandic sagas and in the early literature Americas. A wonderful book!

The Quadrupeds of North America

Audubon, John James

Published by Audubon, V.G., New York, 1849

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. New York: V.G.Audubon, 1849-1851-1854, 3 Volumes 10 x 6 4/8 inches, 155 fine hand colored lithographed and chromolithographed plates by W.E.Hitchcock and R.Trembly after J.J. and J.W. Audubon, all tissue guards present, the plates clean and crisp,2 half titles, new endpapers, 20th-century quarter blue morocco, raised bands, blue cloth minor rubbing in all a fine set. First octavo edition, bound from the original parts. The 'Quadrupeds' was first published in three folio volumes between 1845 and 1848 as "The Viviparous Quadrupeds of North America", with 150 color plates. The first octavo edition, issued in response to the success of a similar edition of the 'Birds of America', between 1851 and 1854, contains all of the original 150 plates, reduced by means of the camera lucida, with 5 of the 6 supplemental octavo plates that were issued separately with the text in 1854.Audubon's enthusiasm at the start of the project was unbridled. Around 1840 he wrote to his collaborator, the Rev. James Bachman," I am growing old, but what of this? My spirits are as enthusiastical as ever. My legs full able to carry my body for ten years to come and in about two of these I expect the illustrations out and ere the following twelve months have elapsed, their histories studied, their descriptions carefully prepared and the book printed! Only think of the quadrupeds of America being presented to the World of Science by Audubon and Bachman" (Streshinsky, Audubon, p.331). The artist managed to complete seventy-seven drawings before failing health kept him from his work. The remainder were completed by John Woodhouse Audubon. The dauntingly massive enterprise was a commercial success, owing chiefly to Victor's careful management. Before Audubon's death in 1851, his sons succeeded in soliciting some three hundred subscriptions for the work. Bennett 5; Nissen ZBI 163; Sabin 2638.
