SPAIN: Carlist War Journal of an unknown British officer serving at San Sebastian with the British Legion; 1-28 Dec. 1836. The journal was not kept up every day. Some blank spaces. Paginated up to 13 Dec. Written up in a notebook apparently used before as a notebook by someone else; see words: " Geography/ Europe " on last page ( f. 22v ), and, reversing the volume, lines on the history of America 1492-1513 ( ff. 10v, 11 ). There are also some other brief notes in pencil. At the back of the volume are ( ff. 21v, 22v ) a sketch of a lighthouse (probably the one referred to in the text; see 7 Dec. ), and of a fortified hill chapel (at San Sebastian?); the former is dated 21 Dec. 1836. For two panoramic views of San Sebastian, executed by Col. C. Shaw in 1836, see Add. MS 57641, f. 4. Purchased 22 Sept. 1999 from Graham York Rare Books, of Honiton, Devon.
Small Quarto. ff. 22. Ink and pencil. No covers. Slight loss of text ff. 19, 20.
