Mátyás Bél's textbook on national studies was first published in 1753. It is interesting that the title page of the 1779 edition also reads "Editio tertia auctior & correctior". The "Compendiolum", which describes the connected parts (partes adnexae) of Hungary, was published for the first time at that time. The map in our copy, made by Sámuel Mikoviny, is missing from almost all other pieces.
Contemporary leather.
