First published in 1872. Lavishly illustrated. Everything you would need to mount an expedition into exotic territory in Victorian time. Great for research for historical novels. According to Wikipedia: "Sir Francis Galton (16 February 1822 – 17 January 1911), cousin of Douglas Strutt Galton, cousin of Charles Darwin, was an English Victorian polymath: anthropologist, eugenicist, tropical explorer, geographer, inventor, meteorologist, proto-geneticist, psychometrician, and statistician. He was knighted in 1909."
