‎KING Edvard‎
‎DESCRIPTIVE PORTRAITURE OF EUROPE IN STORM AND CALM.‎

‎Twenty years' experiences and reminiscences of an American journalist. Nichols & Co., Springfield, Mass. 1885. In-8 gr. (mm. 253x178), tela edit. con ricca decorazione oro e nero e cornici a secco (abrasioni), risg. figurati, pp. IX,861, testo su due colonne, con over one hundred illustrations from designs made expressly for this work by Felix Regamey, Paris, and others by J. Wells Cahmpney, New York.Sketches and records of noted events, celebrated persons and places, national and international affairs in France, Spain, Germany, Great Britain, Holland, Belgium, Austria, Hungary, Roumania, Turkey-in-Europe, Switzerland, and Italy. Come si sottolinea nella prefazione it would be impossible in the limits of a single volume to describe even in the simplest fashion, all the great events which have taken place in Europe from 1867 to the present time. The author has contented himself with embodying in his narrative those with which he was most familiar... Con tracce d'uso ma complessivam. in buono stato.‎
