- The character of Dolomieu sufficiently points out the nature and
value of this work. A Supplement was published the same year, under the
title of Memoire sur les Isles Ponces. Par Dolomieu. Paris. 8vo.
417. Voyage Historique Litteraire et Pittoresque dans les Isles et
Possessions ci-devant Venetiennes du Levant. Par A. Grasset-Saint-Sauveur,
jun. Paris, 1800. 3 vols. 8vo. - The author was French Consul at the Ionian
Islands for many years; and hence he had opportunities which he seems to
have employed with diligence and judgment, of gathering materials for this
work, which, besides what its title indicates, enters fully into the
agriculture, navigation, commerce, manners, &c.
418. Histoire Geographique, Politique, et Naturelle, de la Sardignie. Par
D.A. Azami. Paris, 1801. 2 vols. 8vo. - Of this island we know less than of
any other part of Europe; it has been seldom explored, and still seldomer
described. There is certainly no work we are acquainted with, that gives
such a complete and accurate account of this island and its inhabitants as
Azami's.
419. Moeurs' et Coutumes des Corses. Par G. Faydel. Paris, 1798.
8vo. - Agriculture and natural history, rather popular than scientific;
commerce and other similar topics are treated of in this work, though the
title would lead us to expect only description of manners and customs.
420. Voyage Antique a l'Etna, en 1819. Par Gourbillon. 1820. - Chiefly
relating to the natural history, and meteorology of the mountain.
421. Historisch Kritische Nachrichten von Italien.
