‎Exceedingly rare first (and only?) edition of this extensive and richly illustrated travel-guide to Hungary and the Danube. Riegel had published a similar work two years earlier (1686) on the German speaking areas in Europe and the Rhine, the present work by far being the rarest. We have only been able to trace one copy at auction (incomplete).OCLC list two copies, both in The British Library.‎
