Address On The Subject Of A Surveying And Exploring Expedition To The Pacific Ocean And South Seas is a historical book written by Jeremiah N. Reynolds in 1836. The book is an address given by Reynolds to the American Geographical and Statistical Society, proposing a surveying and exploring expedition to the Pacific Ocean and South Seas. Reynolds presents his arguments for the expedition, highlighting the potential benefits of the exploration, including the expansion of American commerce, the advancement of scientific knowledge, and the spread of American values and civilization. He also discusses the potential challenges and dangers of such an expedition, including the need for skilled navigators and the risk of encountering hostile indigenous peoples. The book provides insight into the mindset of American explorers and politicians during the early 19th century, as they sought to expand their influence and knowledge of the world. It is a valuable resource for historians and anyone interested in the history of exploration and American expansionism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
