Matthew Flinders (1774–1814) joined the Royal Navy at fifteen, later claiming to have been inspired by Robinson Crusoe. He served under William Bligh, and charted the Bass Strait in 1798. In 1801 he was commissioned to chart 'New Holland', and so became the first to circumnavigate the island he referred to as Australia. After being shipwrecked on the Barrier Reef and imprisoned for six years on Mauritius on suspicion of spying, he returned to England in 1810 and began work on A Voyage to Terra Australis. He died the day after his book and maps were published. This biography, published in 1914 to mark the centenary of his death, was the first comprehensive study of this central figure of Australian maritime exploration. The leading Australian historian Ernest Scott (1868–1939) based his account on material held in private collections in France as well as on documents deposited in Australian libraries.

Henry Duff Traill (1842–1900) was a prolific journalist, satirist and author. The son of a magistrate, he was called to the Bar in 1869 but began working as a journalist at the Yorkshire Post soon afterwards. He contributed to several newspapers, acting as chief political leader writer at The Daily Telegraph from 1882 to 1897 and editing The Observer for two years. He later became the editor of Literature, holding this post until his death. Among his diverse published works were six biographies, of which the most in-depth was that of Arctic explorer Sir John Franklin. Published in 1896 and drawing on personal documents provided by the Franklin family, it provides a picture of Franklin's character and personal life, alongside a detailed account of his career. Written fifty years after Franklin's presumed death, this work also covers the aftermath of his final ill-fated voyage in search of a north-west passage.

De l'origine égyptienne des Bakongo: Étude syntaxique et lexicologique comparative des langues r n Kmt et kikongo
Nos recherches sur les relations entre l' gyptien et le kikongo, bien qu' tendues dans le temps, n'ont pas t si difficiles en r alit . Notre t che a t en grande partie facilit e par les travaux de Cheikh Anta Diop sur l' gyptien et le wolof, de Th ophile Obenga sur l' gyptien et le mbochi, et d'Aboubacry Moussa Lam sur l' gyptien et le peul. Gr ce eux, nous n' tions jamais loin pour retrouver les formes syntaxiques et lexicales kikongo derri re l' gyptien. L'ouvrage comprend donc deux parties: une grammaire et un dictionnaire. Il constitue, nous le croyons bien, une r ponse au souhait exprim en 1974 par Serge Sauneron au colloque du Caire: L' gyptien est une langue stable durant au moins 4500 ans. L' gypte tant plac e au point de convergence d'influences ext rieures, il est normal que des emprunts aient t faits des langues trang res; mais il s'agit de quelques centaines de racines s mitiques par rapport des milliers de mots. L' gyptien ne peut tre isol de son contexte africain et le s mitique ne rend pas compte de sa naissance; il est donc l gitime de lui trouver des parents ou des cousins en Afrique (Cit par Jean DEVISSE, Annexe au chapitre 1: rapport de synth se du colloque sur "Le peuplement de l'Egypte ancienne et le d chiffrement de l' criture m ro tique", in Histoire g n rale de l'Afrique, II. Afrique ancienne, Paris: Pr sence Africaine / Edicef / Unesco 1987, p. 87).

Scott's Last Expedition - The Personal Journals Of Captain R. F. Scott, C.V.O., R.N., On His Journey To The South Pole
Originally published in 1913, this early work contains a fascinating and detailed account of Sir Robert Falcon Scott's journey to the South Pole. Offering a complete collection of Scott's diary entries from his last expedition, this book is unparalleled in its insight and detail. It constitutes a must-read for anyone interested in this famous explorative journey. Captain Robert Falcon Scott (1868 - 1912) was an explorer and officer in the British Royal Navy. He famously captained two expeditions to the Antarctic regions: the 'Discovery Expedition' of 1901, and the infamous 'Terra Nova Expedition' of 1910. Sir James Matthew Barrie 1860 - 1937) was a Scottish dramatist and author, best remembered for being the creator of "Peter Pan". Many vintage texts such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
