BACHAUMONT, CHAPEL. Journey of the gentlemen of Bachaumont and La Chapelle, with a description of all the most remarkable things they saw in the places where they passed, directed and put in order both in verse and prose by the sieur***. S.l., s.n., 1698. In-12, [1] f., 164 p., 18th c. blond calf, spine with 5 ribs, title piece garnet calf, boxes and dishes edged with a gold fillet, gilt roulette on the cups, gilt slices (gnawed headdress, one blunt corner, some spots on the dishes).
