Description
Rare illustrated publication including a rare map of Europe as a regal queen with the title "Geheimzinnige toebereidselen tot eene boertige reis door Europa. [...] voorgeleezen in [...] de maatschappij der verdiensten, onder de spreuk: Felix Meritis. / By A. Fokke Simonsz".
The book contains a map of Europe (168x2369mm.) engraved by H.Klockhoff and a cartographical curiosity, "Europa volgens de nieuwste verdeeling...", Europe as a regal queen but with an interesting twist and political commentary.

Printed by Francois Bohn in Haarlem, who was active from 1786 till 1819.
