Note
First printing of the 5th. volume of the Jesuit missionaries' reports in 287 page, with the first edition of the Kino's map of California published for the first time in this book. Bound in full calf with rich gold decoration and gold title on spine. Kino proved that California was not an island by leading an overland expedition there from Arizona. Map is a cartographic milestone in the mapping of California. Streeter Sale 2424 noted that: "The letters contain the first translation of Father Francisco Piccolo's "Informe del estado de la nueva cristiandad de California". Kino's map exerted a great influence on contemporary cartography, especially after the French mapmaker, Guillaume Delisle, adapted the Kino's thesis. Eusebio Francisco Kino S.J. was a Roman Catholic priest who became famous for his exploration in Northern Mexico and to present day California and Arizona. He established twenty-four missions and visitas and was known for his ability to create relationships between indigenous peoples and the religious institutions he represented. Kino also practiced other crafts and was an expert astronomer, mathematician and cartographer, who drew the first accurate maps of PimerÃa Alta, the Gulf of California and Baja California. Map is folding copper engraved, on sheet 24.5x21.5., with 40 +1 pages of explanatory text, extends south on the peninsula to Loreto and Cinaloa and north to Colorado River, showing Kino's discoveries, place names, settlements, rivers and mountains. Relief shown pictorially.
