Maliszewski 1320. spine and cover crumbled, internally very good condition. Ex. uncut. Stamp. Diary of F. Mickiewicz (1796-1862) - Adam's oldest brother, an important source for the poet's biography. "Perhaps it was the reading of 'Pan Tadeusz' and the letter encouragement of A. E. Odyniec in 1835 that made him [Franciszek] take to writing down his childhood memories [...]. However, the memoir was never completed: it broke off abruptly, brought to the moments immediately preceding the death of his father, Nikolai Mickiewicz. After all, it is the only document from the brothers about the poet's childhood, which, despite the embellished picture of the family, has source value, both in the sphere of facts and the language spoken in Lithuania." (Enc. Mick. 302).
