Hannover, heirs of Nikolai Förster and son, 1740-1741. First edition of an extensive itinerary by J. G. Keyssler (1663-1743), who is regarded as polyhistor and nestor of German protohistory. Keyssler accompanied the young Barons Bernstorff on their journey through the neighboring states of Germany. Almost two thirds of the work are dedicated to Italy, and his descriptions are written in form of 99 letters. This itinerary today offers an authentic soure of geographical features such as monuments, museums, cultural and natural historical landmarks. Keyssler also discusses the political and economical conditions. His work is an important intermediate stage on the way to modern travel reports, since many cultural aspects of all regions and towns are mentioned he visited. The map shows the pass road "Clausen in dem Lueg" near Salzburg mountain regions, Lake Lago Maggiore with 2 folding views of the "Isola Bella", 1 view of "Theatrum Veronense" and 3 natural history illustrations. Volume 2 appeared under the title "Fortsetzung Neuester Reisen".- Due to paper quality slightly browned, otherwise a fine and clean copy. - Graesse IV, 15; Waeber III, 31; Grieb/Luber, Eutiner Landesbibliothek I, 0688; Engelmann, Bibl. geogr. 255; not in Cox.
