Édition originale de la traduction française, augmentée de notes par le traducteur.L'originale a paru à Londres la même année. Elle contenait aussi le "Journal of a visit to Greece" de Humphrey, rejeté de l'édition française."Important philhellenic collection (…) Emerson reached Greece at the end of 1823 and left soon after Byron's death in 1824. In 1825 he returned as a volunteer and was correspondent for the Times, fighting alongside Miaoulis and Makriyannis. The portrait of Miaoulis is after a drawing from life by Emerson. The Italian revolutionary Pecchio had been living in exile in England when he decided to go to Greece for a few weeks because he was "desirous of paying a visit to the members of the Government". He rapidly became disillusioned but was honest in his account, which is very interesting" [Leonora Navari].Bon exemplaire de ce livre important pour l'histoire du philhellénisme ‎
