Cloth. Condition: Very Good Indeed. An uncommon copy of this contemporary account of post-Napoleonic Switzerland, drawing upon Simond"s extensive travels through the Alps. Rebound in a later full cloth binding with a segment of an earlier calf spine bearing the gilt-lettered title laid down to the spine. Endpapers renewed. Published as part of Phillips's Voyages and Travels, Volume VII, this is an abridged and rearranged English translation of Louis Simond's account of his travels through Switzerland between 1817 and 1819. Phillips's publisher's notice explains that this version confines itself to the travel portion, selecting and reorganising its principal material. Simond records his journey from Fontainebleau into Switzerland, describing the Jura, Basel, the Swiss lakes, Alpine scenery and settlements, and the valley of Chamonix and Mont Blanc. Louis Simond (1767-1831) was a French-born merchant, traveller and writer. Born into a Protestant family in Lyon, he emigrated to the United States before the French Revolution and became a successful merchant in New York. His narrative combines observations of landscape and geology with accounts of local history, society and recent events, including the catastrophic Rossberg landslide. Externally, very smart. Slight rubbing and bumping to extremities. The odd minor mark to boards. Internally, firmly bound. Pages bright and clean with one or two light spots to fore edge.
