With marbled endpapers. Collation: (?)6, 8, 2 -3 6, 4 4, A6, B-L8, M5; ff: (1 [title, verso blank]), (5), 25 [i.e. 23: 1-13, 9, 17-25], (1 [with woodcut printer's device]), First edition of the first Spanish book on hunting, with thirty-five woodcut illustrations, three of them representing hunting scenes in the Americas. Libro, de la Monteria is the first Spanish book on hunting, and also the earliest about hunting in the Americas. The core of the text was written in the 14th century by the commission of Alfonso XI of Castile (1310-1350). The present book is the first printed edition of it, which is considerably enlarged by the editor Gonzalo Argote de Molina (1548-1596), the Spanish humanist writer and historian. Argote de Molina added the section "Discurso" to the book, which - among other parts - contains a pastoral eclogue by Luys Gomez de Tapia, chapters on hunting elephants in India and Africa and bison in Poland. It also includes three chapters on hunting in the New World, in Peru (Chaco; chapter XXXV.), Mexico (Oxio; chapter XXXVI.) and the "Indias Ocidentales", the West Indies (Santo Domingo, Cuba, Tierra Firme and New Spain; chapter XXXVII.). These chapters describe the hunting of some of the curious animals of the Americas, like guanaco, vicunas and ostrich (rhea) in Peru, leopard or puma, and wild boar in Mexico, and wild bull in Venezuela and Cuba. Three woodcut illustrations are representing such huntings. The thirty-five illustrations (eighteen different images, some recurring), which are the first collection of hunting scenes published in Spain, were created by Juan de Arfe y Villafane (1535-1603) or Mateo Pérez de Alesio (1547-1628) [Santonocito, 2016. pp. 240-241.]. The image of the bullfight (Discurso f. 9v [i.e. 14v]) is considered to be the first printed representation of the noble sport.
