Text in Italian; inscribed to Donna Teresa Colonna-Doria, Duchess of Cesi. The Cesi family was one of two families of prince assistants to the papacy. This is the story of Galletti's voyage (by sea, of course) around the world in the company of the actress, Adelaide Ristori. They visited Australia, North America, South America, and more. Amazing reading. Includes a map of the voyage and a gatefold itinerary.
