Il foglio (cm. 50 x 38,5) deriva dal volume del Meyer (“L’arte di restituire a Roma la tralasciata navigazione del suo Tevere”) ma - come nel volume - include la dicitura dello stampatore (Tinassi). Vistoso restauro al centro della pagina. This leaf, printed on both sides, derives from the notorius Meyer’s work: “L’arte di restituire a Roma la tralasciata navigazione del suo Tevere” (Roma, Camera apostolica, 1683). As like in the volume, the etching includes the printer’s note (Tinassi). Restoration at center of the leaf.

Madrid, Editorial Pueyo, 1934 ["Vidas Españolas del Siglo XIX"]. 4to.; 251 pp., 2 hs., con siete ilustraciones entre el texto. Cubiertas originales. El 5 de Noviembre de 1891, harto de casi todo, Peral se vió forzado a licenciarse de la Marina. Intentó explicar esta radical decisión en un "Manifiesto". Se lo impidieron por todos los medios y tuvo que publicarlo, costeándolo de su propio bolsillo, en un periódico satírico llamado "El Matute". El autor de ésta biografía reivindicativa de su figura científico-técnica y humana, León Villanúa, mordaz marino mercante riojano, intentó publicarla en la Colección de Vidas Españolas e Hispaoamericanas del Siglo XIX, de Espasa Calpe, pero el Director entónces de dicha Colección, Don Melchor Férnandez Almagro, se opuso a ello "porque le sentó mal que yo llamase a las cosas por su nombre y a los políticos andaluces por sus canalladas". Lo cierto es que Villanúa, traductor de Trotski y viajero en la URSS, no sólo arremete contra los andaluces, sino tambien los vizcainos y catalanes, junto a los burócratas madrileños "chupatintas y demás gentuza ignorante, religiosa, necia, beoda y antiespañola. Y que nadie se ofenda, que lo digo por todos".

Fine Fine English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. Folio. (33 x 23 cm). In English. 159, [1] p., color ills. Ottoman nautical charts and the Atlas of Ali Macar Reis. 16th century Ottoman nautical charts figure significantly in the history of cartography. Dating from the time when the Ottoman Empire was approaching its zenith of wealth and power, these charts are a valuable source of information about the history of the period. The work of the Ottoman privateers who then held sway over most of the Mediterranean, these charts cover a geographical area far beyond the bounds of the Ottoman Empire. as rulers of an expanding empire, the Ottoman sultans took a close interest in mapmaking and may well have commissioned their sea captains to draw the charts. When Piri Reis presented his first world map to Sultan Selim I, conqueror of Egypt, in 1517, the sultan is said to have declared, "How small is the world for a conqueror.". A very heavy volume.
