Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Travels in Portugal, and Through France and Spain: With a Dissertation on the Literature of Portugal, and the Spanish and Portugueze Languages That zealous and active patron of Natural History, the Count of Hoffmannsegg, who is himself so great a proficient in the science, being desirous of a companion in his travels to Portugal not wholly unexperienced in Botany and Mineralogy, I had the honour to be chosen to that important post. We embarked at Hamburg in the summer of 1797, and being obliged by contrary winds storms to cast anchor off Romney, quitted the ship and landed at Dover; from which place we pursued our journey through France and Spain to Portugal, for the purpose of travelling over that country more minutely. In this we employed the greater part of the year 1798, but in 1799 my affairs obliging me to leave that country, I embarked on board the packet for Falmouth, and crossing England by London and Yarmouth returned to Hamburg.
