Récit sous forme de lettres d'un voyage du bibliographe Dibdin en 1818 à Dieppe Caen Rouen Paris et Strasbourg avec description des curiosités archéologiques et des bibliothèques publiques. Dibdin visita les imprimeurs et les libraires Brunet Debure Renouard etc. acheta quelques ouvrages et invita à dîner avant de quitter Paris Van Praet Langlès Vivant-Denon et Millin. On a reproché à Dibdin un esprit par trop caustique outre le fait qu'il se met souvent en scène avec une vanité naïve. Les traducteurs français Crapelet et Licquet épinglent ses bévues sans ménagement sans toutefois saisir le sel de ses prétentions à l'humour. Les rédacteurs du DNB sont tout aussi sévères. Il fallait attendre le petit ouvrage de O'Dwyer Thomas Frognall Dibdin Londres 1967 pour rendre justice à l'enthousiasme et aux savantes délices du bibliophile anglais.Provenance : Collection Marcel Aubreton 1934-2019.
