Complete course of study,
for Englisman to obtain the
French Language
at home.
This is the book from Jerome Nicolas Vlieland. It is a presentation copy from 1827.
As you can see 200 years old but still in a good condition .
when we open it we see the inschription
To
W.Taylor Esq
As a mark of Respect
for his Zeal in the cause
of literature
from the Author.
This William Taylor is William Taylor of Norwich.
And there is a lot to tell about him .
So we will in several new chapters in the blog tell about his life.
And he is also named in the blog allready .
Together with John Moore and a lot of other people.
In a long story William Taylor and captain Vlieland meet.
And there is the clue to be found about Jerome Nicholas Vlieland.
As it in Dutch I will try to translate it in English for all to enjoy.
the other inscription is
to the honourable
this volume
is most respectfully inscribed
by his obliged
and most obedient servant,
the author
The book is great with all kind of folded big charts .
Maybe in the end we will also speak French fluently.
