The edition was limited to twenty-seven copies." As LCP notes, the 1786 Frankfurt & Leipzig edition (Sabin 12232) is a "translation of: Voyage de Mr. le chevalier de Chastellux en Amerique. [Cassel], 1785. (Surreptitious edition of extracts from Chastellux's manuscript journals, first published in a periodical at Gotha)."
