Hardcover in Dustjacket. Condition: FINE. MARITIME -A private firsthand account of one of the earliest voyages to South Australia including a mutiny requiring a detour to Rio de Janeiro, a storm involving the loss of sails, drunken fights, and orgies On November 19, 1838, James Bell, then age 21, set out in the sailing vessel the Planter from St. Katharine Docks in London to travel to Adelaide, an infant colony half a world away and not yet two years old. He left behind family, good friends, and the mysterious "C.P.," a young woman with whom he hoped one day to be reunited. The journey usually took 130 days, but due to the incompetence of the captain and the many misadventures encountered it took the Planter almost six months to reach its destination. Along the way it lost a crew, several passengers, and much livestock; it gained a new crew and at least one extra passenger. The drunken brawls and licentious couplings horrified James Bell. xvii, 202 p. : facsims. ; 21 cm. #210925 Bell, James -- Travel Bell, James -- Diaries Planter (Ship) Voyages and travels Adelaide (S.A.)

First book edition of only 100 copies. 8vo. Inscribed by Haley on the title page, "To a member of the 'gun wad' club, from J. Evetts Haley." Original blue printed wrappers, 78 [1] pp., introduction, footnotes, tables, index. This rare book published in an edition of 100 copies, has long been sought by cattle and Haley collectors. Herd 235 says "Scarce." Bell was a young Texas cattleman who, in 1854, joined a cattle drive from Texas to California. Rather than writing ordinary letters home, he kept a contemporaneous diary of the journey, documenting the route, cattle driving, camps, landscape, Native Americans, Mexican settlements, hardships, and everyday experiences on this little-known trail. This rare book, one of Haley's earliest titles, contains a fine introduction by Haley, including an account of his efforts to locate the diaries that make up this book. The existence of a major cattle trail from California to Texas and several major drives over this trail seven years before the Civil War is little known and this work is a major source on the subject. Minor wear to the extended edges of the front and rear covers, else a near fine, clean copy.…
