Aventures les plus curieuses des voyageurs. Coup d'œil autour du monde, d'après les relations anciennes et modernes ... par M. Hombron. Ouvrage imité des Aventures des voyageurs par P. Blanchard
A French compilation of travellers' adventures drawn from old and modern voyage accounts, written by Jacques-Bernard Hombron after P. Blanchard's Aventures des voyageurs and published in Paris in 1847 for general and young readers. Wood engravings show shipwrecks, castaways on rocks, beach camps and signal flags, with loose hatching, smoky skies and figures in mid-gesture useful for narrative vignettes.
