Description
First Edition, Illustrated, Publishers' Original Binding, Very Scarce
The first edition of this very scarce work, in a lovely decorative cloth binding.
Illustrated with a frontispiece, and thirty-four plates and in-text illustrations.

A wonderful travel work by Sarah Matilda Henry Davis, travelling across Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Russia.
Davis' vivid descriptions offer a fascinating and unique insight into female travel in the Victorian era, and at the countries of Northern Europe during this period.
Through Davis' travels the reader explores Gudbrandsdalen, Møre og Romsdal, Trondheim, St. Petersburg, Moscow, and more.
