About This Item
Leyden, Neth: Pieter Vander Aa, 1727. Hardcover. Fine. Title continued: "mitsgaders de harde en Slaaffe Dienstbaarheyd des Schrijvers, onder het wreede Jok der Turken in Egypten, en hoe hy eyndelijk, na veele uytgestane ongemakken, in sijn vryheyd is hersteld. Als Mede een Beschrijving van verscheyde Eylande, Steeden, Zee-havens, Oudheeden van Eypten, Turkyen en het Heylige Land: ook de Gewoontens, Zeden en Straf-oeffeningen deser volkeren. Door den Reysiger selfs beschreeven. Met een volkoomen Register en Konst-Printen verrijkt." [72] p., engraved title page vignette, 1 leaf of a copper-plate engraved folded map: 4 in-text engravings; 36 cm. Signatures: A-I4 (4to). Modern grey and brown decorative paper over boards with a modern printed black-on-grey label on the front cover reproducing part of the title page as a smaller scale, within a double-ruled border. Text is in 130 numbered columns. Although there is no date of publication, this appears to be from the series of travel accounts printed by Pieter vander Aa in 1727, De Aanmerkenswaardigste en Alomberoemde See- en Land-Reizen. The author, Michael Heberer (1560-1623/33?), has been called der pfälzishe Robinson, or Robinson Crusoe of the Palatinate, because of his unlucky sea voyages recounted here. The engraved map shows Heberer's route around the Mediterranean Sea and the Black Sea. The other engravings depict a ship wreck, prisoners of the moors, the freeing of some prisoners in Alexandria, and the execution of others. Back cover of modern binding slightly soiled; otherwise in Fine Condition. Very scarce.
