Front board a bit splayed covers with three old dampstains and a few scars and tiny wormholes but a very pleasing original binding with almost no wear to the joints. A very few marginal smudges made during printing other quite trivial imperfections but AN ESPECIALLY FRESH BRIGHT AND CLEAN COPY INTERNALLY with rich impressions of the engravings.<br/> <br/> This is a contemporary copy in remarkably fresh internal condition of an important and entertaining account of the travels of a 17th century Englishman in exotic Asian and African territories particularly Persia. It is significant both for the ways it is accurate and for the ways it is fictitious. Sir Thomas Herbert 1606-82 left for Persia on a diplomatic mission to Shah Abbas in 1626 as part of the entourage of Sir Dodmore Cotton. The mission was not successful: Cotton and the mission's other leader Sir Robert Shirley both died in 1628 leaving their retinue at loose ends with the increasingly unimpressed Shah. Herbert made a slow return to England traveling through a large portion of Asia and Africa and even sailing up the coast of North America. He finally returned to England in 1630; four years later he published this account of his adventures. The text describes meetings with people of many cultures as well as encounters with exotic animals including the dodo flamingoes and flying fish. Herbert's accounts are of great importance for their details of early Asian travel by Westerners. At the same time the author was unable to resist the urge to embellish a good story and according to DNB gave implicitly first-person accounts of places he had not in fact visited. One such detour into the fanciful comes in the chapter involving the author's apparent visit to America. In it Herbert discusses the belief that the mythical Welsh king Madoc ap Owen-Gwyned had settled in North America in the 9th century for which he provides linguistic evidence that Sabin calls "entirely fanciful." DNB tells us that "this segment was apparently included to please the earl of Pembroke's own Welsh nationalist fancies. It also continued to help fuel various theories about Madoc's colonies and Welsh Indians in North America until the early years of the nineteenth century." Herbert's tale is profusely illustrated by William Marshall fl. 1617-49 with engravings that are sometimes more imaginative than accurate see for example the depiction of the shark on page 6 or the penguin on page 13. Despite these rather amusing inaccuracies the illustrations are lively and detailed providing a sense of the awe the early readers must have felt when imagining foreign places. Our copy in a period binding with part of a manuscript ledger used in the binding process visible is from the library of Walter John 1866-1933 8th baronet Trevelyan who as his inkstamp suggests served as High Sheriff of Cornwall from 1906-07. printed by William Stansby, and Jacob Bloome unknown

1672ICFELAQ59QY4Holland 1672. Later blue/grey paper wrappers. 4to. With 2 thin rules on the title-page. Set in roman types with incidental italic. First and only edition of a 1672 political pamphlet in the form of a spin-off from Henry Neville's very popular 1668 story of a voyage to the imaginary utopian/dystopian Isle of Pines. The present story is written as a conversation between three militia men on watch discussing the turbulent politics of 1672. One tells of his fictitious voyage and several years residence on a fictitious utopian island called Mallanbruino in the South Pacific. He says it is one degree south of the Isle of Pines. On Mallanbruino the industrious people were oppressed by an emperor but rose up and defeated him with help from a prince who also replaced the evil regents. They note the remarkable similarities to events in the Dutch Republic. The island then set up a new and fairer democratic representative political system bringing peace and happiness to the island. The three men conclude that the Dutch Republic should introduce such a system.Some spots and a small restoration to the extremities of the title-page otherwise in good condition. A fascinating but little-known pamphlet building political propaganda around a story related to the popular imaginary voyage to the Isle of Pines.l Knuttel 10600; M.

First edition an exceptionally rare collection of Dutch Voyages to the East Indies here housed in its contemporary binding and with the complete complement of engraved views and maps. These early voyages of discovery and expeditions in the late 16th and early 17th centuries laid the foundation for the Dutch expansion and successful trading activities in the Far East and the establishing of the Dutch seaborne empire. This collection of voyages brought together by the Amsterdam publisher Joost Hartgers in 1648 ranks among the best albeit not the earliest collections printed in the first half of the 17th century. This collection contains amongst many important travels the journals of Bontekoe & Raven and Pelsaert ads 10 and 11 on Australia.All parts have separate title pages and individual pagination and could be sold separately which is why it is extraordinary to find them together. Copies complete with the preliminaries frontispiece general title introduction and index are very rare. A proposed second part remained unpublished.The binding is slightly soiled some manuscript inscriptions on the front pastedown and recto of the first flyleaf occasional marginal manuscript annotations. The typographical general title page has been restored along the fore-edge slightly affecting the woodcut illustration very slightly browned throughout occasionally slightly foxed occasional marginal water stains.
