Holland and Germany is a book written by the renowned Italian adventurer and author, Jacques Casanova. The book is a travelogue that chronicles Casanova's journey through Holland and Germany in the 18th century. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which describes a specific location or city that Casanova visited during his travels.Throughout the book, Casanova provides vivid descriptions of the landscapes, architecture, and people he encountered on his journey. He also offers insights into the customs, traditions, and way of life of the people of Holland and Germany during that time.Casanova's writing style is engaging and lively, making the book an enjoyable read for anyone interested in travel writing or European history. The book also provides a unique glimpse into the life and adventures of one of the most famous and intriguing figures of the 18th century.Overall, Holland and Germany is a fascinating travelogue that offers a glimpse into the past and provides valuable insights into the culture and history of two of Europe's most important countries.The so-called Countess Piccolomini was a fine example of the adventurers. She was young, tall, well-made, had eyes full of fire, and skin of a dazzling whiteness; not, however, that natural whiteness which delights those who know the value of a satin skin and rose petals, but rather that artificial fairness which is commonly to be seen at Rome on the faces of courtezans, and which disgusts those who know how it is produced.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
