A propos de cet article

Artist or Author: Samuel PurchasWork: Hakluytus Posthumus OR Purchas his PilgrimesDate of Publication: 1625-1626Style: EngravingPaper Size: ~ 8 1/4" by 13"Condition: The work is in very good to excellent condition overall. There may be a few minor imperfections or faint marks or fox marks to be expected with age. Please review the image carefully for condition and contact us with any questions.Description of the work:This first edition engraving is from Samuel Purchas's work entitled Hakluytus Posthumus or Purchas his Pilgrimes.

(Hill) "One of the fullest and most important collections of voyages and travels in the English language."

The first two volumes are mainly devoted to travels in Africa, the Middle East, and Asia. The third volume largely treats northern explorations and America. The fourth volume is almost entirely devoted to America.
