Motti Aforismi E Proverbii Maltese
Motti, this book is an untrimmed copy, bound for William Stirling-Maxwell in half roan over cloth, with book plate and his blind stamped devices on covers. First and only edition with a long dedication to the English diplomat and author John Hookham Frere, who had retired to Malta some years earlier on account of his wife;s ill health.
Frere had devoted considerable time to learning Maltese and perhaps Vassalli was one of his teachers. Most of the text is Maltese with Italian translations, along with a few line of Arabic.
