Edita, Lausanne, Switzerland, 1966; First Edition; Quarto, 221 pages; red leatherette, ornate gilt titles and decorations; decorative end papers. Fascinating collection of writings by European travelers describing the landscape and people encountered in their journeys across America from East to West during the period between the War Of Independence and the War Between The States. Beautifully and profusely illustrated in color and black & white with reproductions of American scenes drawn and painted from life by early artists, some never published before or heretofore available only to researchers. Two-panel Map Of The United States And Territories In 1857. Painstakingly compiled by Joseph Jobé, literary director of Swiss publishing house Edita. Printed and bound in Switzerland. Absolutely Fine, in like slipcase. A wonderful book which affords a luminous look back at our American heritage. An exceptional copy, complete in all respects.
