[ITALIE] Souvenirs de voyage en 1832 et 1833. A ma bien-aimée Layeta

First edition, uncommon, of this account of a journey through Italy following a thoroughly classical itinerary: Sens, Dijon, Lucerne, Reinthal, Pfeffers, the Grisons, Tyrol, San Bernardino, Locarno, Bellinzona, Lugano, Como, Milan, Pavia, Turin, Genoa, Lucca, Pisa, Naples, Salerno, Caserta, Rome, Florence, Milan, the Simplon Pass, etc.

Small losses and tears to the margins of the covers, some foxing.

The author was clearly determined to preserve his anonymity: not only has his identity never been established, but he also left unsigned the autograph presentation inscription in our copy to the Comtesse Duplessis de Pouzillac, written opposite the title page of the first volume.
