Authorship Notes A collection of letters dealing with advice on travel, travel in France, and French literature. A rather conventional set of advice for travels. The only unusual element, noted by Stagl, Apodemiken, is an advice to contact Jesuit scholars - exiled from France, they can be found all over Europe, and are very good sources of knowledge not to be neglected.
