The Memoirs of Jacques Casanova de Seingalt, Volume 5 (Barnes & Noble Digital Library)

Volume five of Casanova's six-volume Memoirs, "In London and Moscow," recounts more of his many exciting love affairs (which lead to disease), and his time in England among the "eccentric"—attempting to sell his lottery idea once again, without success. Casanova goes on to Russia with his plan, but is expelled after dueling.
