Stuttgart, Hallberger, 1840-41. First edition of Prince Pückler-Muskau's (1785-1871) account of a journey to Greece and Malta, undertaken in 1836-37. As a nobleman travelling in style he was everywhere welcome to move in the best society. The plates show, a.o. the Order's arsenal in Malta, with its ship constructions and repair facilities. His books were very popular as his style was versatile and entertaining, and his descriptions showed a keen appreciation of art and literature. - Lightly browned throughout, parts somewhat dust-soiled or waterstained, plates clean. otherwise a nice copy. - Wilpert/Gühring 9; Goedeke XIV, 719, 451; Borst 1959.
