The book also includes genuine descriptions of the regions covered and gave many Europeans their first notions of the Near East Middle East India and East Indies. The part on Arabia includes an account of the birth of Mohammed.With early owner's inscription and bookplates along with a loosely inserted signed autograph letter ca. 1900. 8 leaves with their margins extended at the fore-edge and foot the title-page and last page somewhat worn and dirty but further in good condition with a few minor fedects.

Best.-Nr. 112964Venice Manfredo Bonelli 26 January 1505. . 8vo; title within decorative woodcut border 4-line decorative woodcut initial to A2 2-line initials elsewhere some toning and soiling small repair to fore-edge of title bookplate to front pastedown; later full vellum gilt lettering to spine on brown morocco title-piece minor worming to extremities and endpapers; collation: A-EE4; ff. 112. Rare 16th-century Italian edition of the world's first best-selling travel book. Although largely fictitious the journeys are based upon travellers' tales extant in the fourteenth century and as such are of considerable interest. Purchas considered Sir John Mandeville to be akin to Marco Polo in terms of importance 'the greatest Asian Traveller that ever the World had' Pilgrimes III p65. His travels take the reader through Turkey Armenia Persia Tartary Arabia India and China and gave many Europeans their first taste of the Near and Middle East as well as the East Indies. Little is known of Mandeville himself however he claims to have been an English Knight who travelled between 1322 and 1356 serving under both the Sultan of Egypt and the Great Khan. Although traditionally attributed to Mandeville in reality the work was an English version of a text known as Itinerarium of which the original ascribed to Jean d'Outremeuse was probably written in Anglo-Norman French. All pre-1725 editions of Mandeville are scarce and editions such as this in a vernacular language particularly so.
