In other words, I have to translate a book from German into Italian, and it has to be the first translation in the world!!! How could I find it?! Can you help me? Thank you so much...

However, I can point you in the direction of some old on-line German-language texts. For German texts in Project Gutenberg, see: http://www.gutenberg.org/browse/languages/de Also, you could look at the page: http://onlinebooks.library.upenn.edu/archives.html to find some other online collections of German-language texts.

It was published by Harper & Brothers, and has a copyright date of 1918. It's missing the leaf containing pages 3 and 4. Would anyone happen to have images of these two pages? (If not, I'll put in a transcriber's note about the missing pages, and finish/upload the book, as it stands.)

Half the Frontispiece (by George Giguere) has been torn away. The portion that's left shows a man in a black suit, his fist doubled, and a woman in the background. The three remaining words in the caption are "the soft throat". If anyone out there has this book, could you send me a jpg of this frontispiece?
