McC. E.B.

Six weeks of vacation in 1883


McDonnell, Chicago 1884. First edition. Small 8vo., 152pp., original original parchment wrappers lettered in black on upper cover, lightly soiled, a very good copy of a rare narrative.

Almost certainly privately printed in a small edition, the book provides an interesting narrative of a trip through the vast region to the west of the Caucasus mountains. Leaving Moscow, the author procceds to the Caspian and Daghestan, Gora, Tiflis, Constantinople, and back to Sistova. A good account of a region almost unknown to tourists at that time.
