[vi] 68pp. In a much later binding (2003). Quarter bound in calfskin over marbled boards with gilt lettering to spine. Pages a little toned but remarkably clean and crisp. Marcard, a Physician in His Majesty's Household in Hanover, wrote his description of the spa waters at Pyrmont in German; it was then translated into French. This was the first English language edition, abridged and revised by the author. Very hard to find.
