A propos de cet article

Hardcover, rebound in modern tan cloth with title and author in gold lettering on spine. New endpapers. 300pp. Printed without illustrations or map. An important primary souce. Chronicles Norden's voyage through Egypt in the years 1737-1738, and to this day remains a primary source for the looks of Egyptian monuments before widespread 19th and 20th century tourism and excavations. Originally published in English in 1757 as Travels in Egypt & Nubia, in 2 vols., and abridged the same year as A Compendium of the Most Approved Modern Travels, vol. 4, The Travels of F.L. Norden through Egypt and Nubia [Title was first pubished in French in 1755 as Voyage d'Egypte et de Nubie.] This copy is circa 1757 and is most likely a pirated edition, possibly published by J. Smith of Dublin, who also published the title under his own imprint. We can find no copies listed in any of the standard or on-line bibliographies bearing publishers listed, leading to the speculation that this is a false imprint. Title toned at margins and showing old private library stamp at lower extremity. Very neat penciled notes, with page numbers, on inside rear cover. No name, no book-plate, etc. Text is very clean with no marking, soiling or foxing. A very well preserved copy in a strong, well executed utilitarioan binding. A rare book, we can locate only one other copy on-line currently for sale. …
