Originally released in ten volumes in the seventeenth century the first version of this two volume English language edition from 1720 was planned to have eight volumes issued by subscription. "It seems quite obvious that the response did not merit its continuation. The publisher Mr. J. Smith must have had a large number of these first two volumes on his hands and tried every means to sell them. The first attempt was by erasing the word "eight" on the title page and substituting "two.".This 1927 edition according to the preface is the first reprint of that English edition.

192714070608London: The Argonaut Press 1927. Limited Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine. Number 628 of 975 copies quarto size 318 pp. Sir John Chardin 1643-1712 was a French merchant and traveler; the publication of the first volume of his "Voyages du chevalier Jean Chardin en Perse et autres lieux de l'Orient" simultaneously in French and English in 1686 permitted Chardin to "position himself as one of the most important arbiters of European commercial and colonial expansion. Over the next decade two successive editions of his 'Travels' were published in England along with reprints of his 1671 'Le Couronnement de Soleiman Troisieme.' In 1711 with the publication of the four-volume edition of his 'Travels' Chardin provided a full and authoritative account and abbreviated editions followed in rapid succession testifying to a nearly insatiable European interest in oriental studies and culture. By the time of his death in 1712 Chardin's chronicles of life and society in Persia had become one of the fundamental texts for this burgeoning field of study and his meticulous accounts of the country earned him the praise of Gibbon Montesquieu and Voltaire" ODNB. <br/><br/>This edition reprints the edition of 1720 correcting some printer's errors and updating the spelling of some names and includes facsimiles of the title-pages for the 1724 and 1720 editions as well as a portrait of the author by David Loggan and several plates.
