(WELD, Isaac). Voyage Au Canada.
Paris: Chez J. E. Gabriel Dufour... Et a Amsterdam, 1806. Two volumes bound in one. First of this edition, issued as volumes seven and eight of the Bibliotheque Geographique et Instructive Des Jeunes Gens Au Recueil de Voyages Interessants... 12mo., recent full calf blindstamped on covers, gilt spine compartments, A.E.G., 216pp, 215pp., with a frontis plate in each volume. This juvenile adaptation was done for the extensive series of would travels issued in the series named above. This copy, probably fairly recently rebound, has a fore-edge painting of Niagara under the gold. It is not copied from the scene of Niagara which is used as the frontis in one volume. The painting is pretty and competent if perhaps, not as old as one might wish. It is fairly recent, probably painted during the last rebind. See TPL 708 for first edition, TPL 710 for first French edition. This edition not in TPL, BL, Sabin or Gagnon. Fine
