FIRST EDITION. The work contains views of the most famous Italian cities together with depictions of fascinating small Italian towns of artistic value such as Fano, Brescia, Orvieto, Gallipoli and many more. This copy is textually complete; the collation agrees with Adams, but differs slightly from that in the British Library, in that a difference in imposition resulted in the omission of the map of Panormus/Palermo called for in the printed table. Adams B-801.
