Sir Nathaniel William Wraxall, 1st Baronet (1751-1831) was an English author and politician. He entered the employment of the East India Company in 1769, and served as judge-advocate and paymaster during the expeditions against Gujarat and Bharuch in 1771. He visited Portugal, and was presented to the court. In the North of Europe he made the acquaintance of several Danish nobles who had been exiled for their support of the deposed Queen Caroline Matilda, sister of George III. This edition (the third) is the last edition with this specific title; in the fourth edition the title changes to A Tour Through the Baltic. Perfect candidate for restoration, or to read through for scholarly reproach. FORN-MSB-0723-0741-HK467
