ACERBI, Joseph. TRAVELS THROUGH SWEDEN, FINLAND, AND LAPLAND, TO THE 
NORTH CAPE, IN THE YEARS 1798 AND 1799. London: Joseph Mawman, 1802. 
First Edition. Two quarto (7-3/4" x 10") volumes in contemporary tree 
calf leather with gilt-lettered red morocco spine labels. Illustrated 
with 16 engravings and a large folding map. Acerbi was an Italian 
naturalist and composer. His record of travels in Scandinavia describes 
the customs of the people and detailed observations on natural history. 
Much of the second volume concerns Lapland where he visited remote areas 
described here. The map is detached and has a short closed tear with 
little effect on the image. Scattered staining and foxing but generally 
clean. Bindings rubbed but the covers are tight. Very Good. (#017983)    
     $1,000.00
