Beschreibung

Nice but somewhat worn and faded contemporary half calf binding with gilt spine and red glazed paper label. Reddish-yellow edges. Some faint foxing and spotting.Bourgoing's story is supplemented and incorporarted into Townsend's text by Ödmann, who summarizes the travel descriptions from Spain of later years in a short introduction. Townsend's "A journey through Spain in the years 1786 and 1787" från 1791 is translated through the German translation from 1792. Jean François Bourgoing was embassador in Madrid 1777-1785. His "Nouveau voyage en Espagne" was published for the first time in 1789 and thereafter in several editions. Ödmann mentions in the foreword that he has used an edtion printed in London in 1783. This is possibly a mix-up with Jean François Peyrons "Nouveau voyage en Espagne fait en 1777 et 1778", which was published anonymously in a London edition in 1783.
