‎Unique traduction française de An automn near the Rhine, publié la même année 1818 à Londres. On est très peu documenté sur l'auteur, mort en 1835, mais son tour des Etats et principautés du sud de l'Allemagne en cette période de restauration est intéressante par les notations sociales (état de la noblesse, montée de la bourgeoisie, y compris dans les régions les plus reculées). On sent toujours en lui l'Anglais imbu de sa supériorité en toutes choses, mais ses descriptions présentent beaucoup d'observations qu'on cherche vainement ailleurs pour la même époque.Van Bragt, Bibliographie des traductions françaises, 10 538. - - VENTE PAR CORRESPONDANCE UNIQUEMENT‎
