Tweede druk. 's-Grav., S. de Visser en Zoon, 1838. Orig. boards. With 4 full-page engraved plates. 118 pp.

School-book edition of the children's travel book and quite a different edition, although stated to be also in the second edition and published by the same publishers. But the book is now less expensively produced, and explicitly intended for use at schools, as is also stated on title. And the plates too are quite different from other editions The title is now again enlarged, fully explaining the book's contents, like in the first edition. As the more expensive edition as well as the school-edition are both stated to be the second edition, the two kind of editions were obviously treated quite separately by the publisher, and there must also have been a first school-edition, though not known to us today.

Good copy of a rare school book.- (Sl. traces of use, with few pages sl. frayed and loose).
Coll. Caljé-Van Gulik 454; not found recorded elsewhere.
