First edition of this remarkable monograph, which has the particularity of having served in the Armée d'Orient during the Crimean War. In 1838, the Alsatian engineer Xavier Hommaire (1812-1848) traveled to "New Russia" where, at the request of the region's governor general, Count Vorontsov, he set out on a voyage of exploration of the Crimea and Caucasus, from Odessa to Astrakhan via Taganrog. After investigating the geological configuration of the Crimea for Vorontsov, he also turned his attention to the question of the rupture of the ancient Bosphorus isthmus and the Caspian depression, to which he returned in 1840. Having discovered an iron mine on the banks of the Dnieper in 1839, he was awarded the Order of St. Vladimir and ennobled by Emperor Nicholas I of Russia. Xavier Hommaire then added a particle to his name, followed by his mother's maiden name. In 1841, he entered the service of the reigning prince of Moldavia, Mihail Sturdza, who put him in charge of mining and communications. Illness forced him to return to France. The Atlas is missing.
