Band 1. "Reise in die Aequinoctial-Gegenden des neuen Continents. Band 1." by Alexander von Humboldt is a scientific publication written in the early 19th century. This work details Humboldt's extensive travels and observations, primarily focusing on the regions of the New World, encompassing a wide range of scientific inquiries into geography, geology, flora, and fauna. The opening of the text provides background on Humboldt's preparation for this ambitious journey, including his departure from Spain and discussions surrounding the challenges faced by an individual traveler as opposed to a government-sponsored expedition. Humboldt expresses his lifelong desire to explore unfamiliar lands and the rigorous studies he undertook before setting out. The narrative describes the initial phases of his journey, including a stay in the Canary Islands and the logistical preparations for traveling to these largely uncharted territories, setting the stage for the scientific explorations that follow.
