Ebook Travels of Cosmo the Third, Grand Duke of Tuscany, Through England During the Reign of King Charles the Second (1669)

The travels of Cosmo III., Grand Duke of Tuscany, which he undertook when Hereditary Prince of that State, are contained in a manuscript which fills two immense folio volumes, and is preserved in the Laurentian Library at Florence. That part of these travels which relates to our own country, has excited considerable interest among the numerous English travellers who have visited Florence since the peace, and it is for the more general gratification of this curiosity of his countrymen, that the writer submits the present work to the public. The translation has been faithfully made from the original Italian, by a distinguished pen.

But in this history of his travels, Cosmo himself must be considered as the traveller only.
