Bag om The Naturalist's And Travelers Companion (1799)

The Naturalist's and Traveler's Companion is a book written by John Coakley Lettsom and first published in 1799. It is a comprehensive guide to the natural history and geography of the world, aimed at travelers and naturalists. The book is divided into two parts. The first part covers the geography, climate, and natural history of different regions of the world, including Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Americas. It provides detailed descriptions of the flora and fauna, as well as the customs and cultures of the indigenous peoples in each region. The second part of the book is a practical guide for travelers, providing advice on topics such as packing, navigation, and dealing with local customs and etiquette. It also includes a list of useful phrases in multiple languages, as well as information on currency exchange rates and transportation options. Throughout the book, Lettsom emphasizes the importance of observing and respecting the natural world, and encourages readers to appreciate the beauty and diversity of the planet. The Naturalist's and Traveler's Companion is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the natural world and travel, and provides a fascinating glimpse into the state of knowledge and attitudes towards nature in the late 18th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
