Greece Revisited, and Sketches in Lower Egypt in 1840. London: Saunders & Otley, 1842

2 volumes, 8vo (214 x 135mm.), 2 lithographed plates (of 3 called for), lacking half-title (called for in vol.2, not called for in vol.1), dark blue half calf over marbled boards, marbled edges, marbled endpapers, prelims lightly foxed, extremities slightly rubbed

An adventurer and philhellene, Garston first visited Greece in 1825 and an extract from his journal of that period is included at the end of volume 2. In 1840 he returned to Greece and the present work gives an account of life in Athens and the islands compared with his impressions in 1825.
