Second printing of the second edition, "plus correcte", in the year of the first printing (which is distinguished by having 428 numbered pp.). "La différence dans la pagination provient de ce que la table, qui dans la première précédait l'ouvrage, a été rejetée à la fin du volume" (Willems, p. 93). - "Among the earliest [works] to describe Constantinople and the Thracian Bosphorus, providing accurate and reliable information" (Blackmer cat., lot 135, zur EA 1561). - The engraved t. p. shows a miniature view of Constantinople with the Golden Horn. - Somewhat browned throughout due to paper; slight worming (some loss to letters).
