Geneve, 1767. 2 vols.
8vo. - This work is worthy of the author, whose introduction to the History
of Denmark is so advantageously known to English readers, by Bishop Percy's
excellent translation of it. It gives an excellent and faithful picture of
this country in the middle of the eighteenth century, and comprises also
the southern provinces of Norway.
244. Voyage en Allemagne et en Suede. Par J.P. Catteau. Paris, 1810. 3
vols. 8vo. - Sensible and judicious on arts, manners, literature, literary
men, statistics and economics; but more full and valuable on Sweden than on
Germany. Indeed few authors have collected more information on the North of
Europe than M. Catteau; his Tableau des Etats Danois, and his Tableau
General de la Suede, are excellent works, drawn up with great accuracy and
judgment. The same may be said of his Tableau de la Mer Baltique; in which
every kind of information relative to the Baltic, its shores, islands,
rivers, ports, produce, ancient and modern commerce, is given.
245. Voyage en Norwege, traduit de l'Allemand de J. Fabricius. Paris, 1803.
8vo. - This too is an excellent work, especially in what regards the natural
history and economics of the country.
246. Reise en die Marschlander au der Nordsee. Von J.N. Tetens. Leip. 1788.
8vo. - Holstein, Jutland, and Sleswick, countries in which we possess few
travels, are accurately described in this work.
247. Reise durch einige Schwedische Provinzen. Von J.W. Schmidt. Hamburgh,
1801. - These travels contain curious particulars respecting the Nomadic
Laplanders.
