The Fifth Edition.

BARON MUNCHAUSON’s TRAVELS and ADVENTURES in Russia, Iceland, Turkey, Egypt, Gibraltar, the Mediterranean, Atlantic Ocean, and through a subterraneous Passage into the Caspian Sea.

This Fifth Edition, exclusive of the above improvements, is embellished with nineteen plates, whereas the French has but six; the Baron’s Adventures at Gibraltar are prohibited in the French and Dutch editions, but given in full length in this English impression.

Price Half-a-Crown sewed.
