About This Item

London,: printed for Thomas M'lean,, 1823.. In-8 gr. (mm. 262x173), p. marocchino coevo, elegante cornice dorata e a secco ai piatti, tagli dorati, pp. XII,188, molto ben illustrato f.t. da 14 (su 15) tavole di cui 12 sono pregevolmente colorate d'epoca, inc. in rame da I. Clark, su disegni dell'Autore. “With notes, taken during a tour through Le Perche, Normandy, Bretagne, Poitou, Anjou, Le Bocage, Touraine, Orleanois, and the environs de Paris”. Interessante resoconto di una visita al monastero di La Trappe. Situato a 140 km. a ovest di Parigi, al confine con la foresta di Perche, il monastero protegge la sua storia e custodisce gelosamente il suo ambiente. Prima di un sito archeologico o storico, La Trappe è la seconda casa dell'Ordine dei Cistercensi della Stretta Osservanza, comunemente noto come trappista. L'opera contiene anche importanti informazioni sulla guerra della Vandea, occorsa solo due anni prima della visita effettuata da Fellowes. L'insurrezione della Vandea contribuì alla sconfitta di Napoleone a Waterloo. Una carta (p. 89-90) sciupata; la p. 109 restaur. per piccoli strappi margin., qualche lieve traccia d'uso altrimenti esemplare ben conservato.
