"Publication was delayed by what the author called 'frequent avocations' and by other excursions in the intervening years. When it finally appeared, it had an immediate success and reached seven editions by 1841.The work presents a reasonable and well balanced account of all aspects of Italian life, though the author, who was a Catholic priest, is said to have repented later of some of his more liberal expressions of opinion." - R.S. Pine Coffin, Bibliography of British and American travel in Italy to 1860, 802/2.
