II-1874 -- Part III-1874 edited by the Honorary Secretaries. Original illustrated printed wrappers. Complete vol. 43 of the Journal of the Asiatic Society of Bengal (JASB), "history and antiquities" section. Generally devoted to the Bengal region, which was under Muslim rule for much of the Middle Ages and Early Modern period, the Journal also published articles of Middle Eastern interest. The present set includes the "Annals of ́Omán, from early times to the year 1728 A.D. From an Arabic MS. by Sheykh Sirhán bin Sáíd bin Sirhán bin Muhammad, of the Benú ́Ali tribe of ́Omán, translated and annotated, by E. C. Ross, Political Agent at Muscat" (pp. 111-196). This chronicle, taken from the larger "Keshf-ul-Ghummeh" ("Dispeller of Grief"), forms "the most authentic and coherent account of the history of ́Omán that has emanated from native sources" (p. 112). Of similar interest is a contribution by J. O'Kinealy, the "Translation of an Arabic Pamphlet on the History and Doctrines of the Wahhábís, written by `Abdullah, grandson of `Abdul Wahháb, the founder of Wahhábism" (pp. 68-82). This pamphlet contains "a complete description of the taking of Makkah, and shews that the Wahhábís [...] entered the holy city not as warriors, but as pilgrims" (p. 68). - Spine defects; otherwise fine.

Tirado a luz pela primeira vez do manuscrito original, e acrescentado com o Itinerarium maris Rubri, e o retrato do author, pelo doutor Antonio Nunes de Carvalho. Acusta de huma sociedade de Portuguezes. Very scarce (unrecorded on ABPC) account of this 16th-century sea voyage around the Arabian Peninsula. The present work is the first full appearance of this journey in print, published from the original manuscript logbooks of Castro's journey, touching on both navigational matters and events of general interest; for example, he devotes a long passage to refuting the theory that the Red Sea really is red (p 257) by drawing up daily samples for examination. Joao's voyage took him up the Red Sea, alighting on both the African coast and the Arabian coast until he reached Suez; his account includes descriptions of the various ports he encountered enroute. As the British Library catalogue notes, the original manuscript was reputed to have bought by Sir Walter Raleigh for £60. Added t.p., illustrated.

Show moreThis volume is an account of the journey made by the Jesuit Father Manoel Godinho from India to Portugal by a new route, over land and sea. It contains valuable descriptions of India, Persia, and the adjacent Turkish Dominions, Arabia Felix, Arabia Deserta, etc. Father Godinho (1632-1712) had the spirit of an adventurer rather than a priest, and left the Order on his return to Portugal in 1663. He candidly admits the decline of Portuguese power in India, and the rise of the English and Dutch, especially the former. This is the first edition of his journey. It is considered "a very rare and valuable book of early travel in and near India, of which Brunet remarks that it is so rare as to have been wanting in the best collections of Voyages and Travels sold during many years past". o padre Manoel Godinho da Companhia de Iesu : enviado à magestade del Rey N.S.
