from Constantinople to Vienna, and an Account of the Gold Mines of

department of enquiry or observation to which Dr. C. did not direct his
attention during his travels: in all he gives much information in a
pleasant style; and to all he evidently brought much judgment, talent, and
preparatory knowledge.

1806-7. 2 vols. 8vo. - Those who admire this author's manner and style

Translated by Charles Stewart. 1814. 3 vols. 12mo. - These travels, of the

made on his mind by what he saw and heard.

trouvees en Greece, en Asie, Inde, Arabie, Egypte, &c. Par Pierre

Egypte, qu'aux Royaumes de Tunis et Alger. Paris, 1628. 4to. De Breves was
