Besides her adventures in Iceland, Madame
Pfeier gives some lively notices Of her travels in
Norway, Sweden, and Prussia, always describing
what she saw with ease and good humor, dwelling
on the details of objects, till you cannot fail to
understand them clearly as she did herself, and
never annoying you with fla shy sentiment or stupid
common places of reflection. The translation Of
this volume by Miss Cooper reads very smoothly
and we dare say, is executed with fidelity.
