Description

Giacomo Girolamo Casanova de Seingalt was a Venetian adventurer and author. He was so famous as a womanizer that his name remains synonymous with the art of seduction and he is sometimes called "the world's greatest lover".

He associated with European royalty, popes and cardinals, along with men such as Voltaire, Goethe, and Mozart; but if he had not been obliged to spend some years as a librarian in the household of Count Waldstein of Bohemia (where he relieved his boredom by writing the story of his life), it is possible that he would be forgotten today

The Memoirs of Casanova is an excellent addition to your vintage Modern Library collection or home library.

Good to Know Before You Buy

Yes. Every photo on this page is the actual item you will receive. Not a stock photo, not a similar copy. What you see is what ships.

Honestly. This is vintage, so expect some age. When I find wear, writing, stains, loose pages, chips, or missing pieces, I note them and show them in the photos. Some marks add character. Some are just flaws. I tell you which is which so you can decide if this is the right one for you.

With care. Old books and fragile pieces are wrapped and boxed so they arrive the way they left me. Careful packing is one of the things buyers mention most in their reviews. Orders of $35 or more ship free.

Probably not. Everything here is one of a kind, and I rarely find the same item twice. Once it sells, it is gone. Vintage does not restock neatly.
