Commentarios de Afonso Dalboquerque capitão geral & gouernador da India, collegidos per seu filho Afonso Dalboquerque das proprias cartas que elle escreuia ao Rey do Manuel folio, first edition, ruled throughout with red ink, fine copy, bound in calf by an English binder, with gilt ornaments of Lyonese styles on the sides and on the back, gilt edges, £80. Lixboa, Ioam de Barreyra, 1557 The binding was executed in London towards the end of the sixteenth century. EXCESSIVELY RARE-so rare indeed that there is no copy in the British Museum, and the Hakluyt Society editor of Alboquerque's commentaries was obliged to make his translation from the reprint of 1574 (in the Grenville library). The Royal Library at Dresden contains a copy of the first edition of 1557, and there was one in the bookseller Thorpe's possession about fifty years ago, which has now disappeared. No others seem to be known. The Salvá library, like our great national collection, can only exhibit the 1574 reprint-also a very scarce book, but of a totally different degree of rarity and intrinsic value. After having completed his well-known Navigations, Hakluyt turned to the Portuguese sources which he had not previously had access to, and printed in 1601 a translation from Galvao's Descobrimentos-an exceedingly rare book printed at Lisbon in 1563. From the age and origin of the binding of this volume, we may conjecture that it belonged to him. It is highly probable that when he obtained the original Galvao, he also procured the Alboquerque -a book which he had evidently known by report only, to judge from the manner in which, in his Navigations, he mentions the name of the great Portuguese captain. 28436 ALBOQUERQUE.

To make up the continuation (Dec. 28451 1497-1550 PORTUGUESE DISCOVERIES-continued. IX-XIII) one must get the small octavo edition printed in 1778-88. In the preceding last two sets the first three volumes are of the second edition, but all the others are of the original issue. It is not known whether a title and preliminary leaves were ever printed for Vol. VI, or whether they perished in the fire which destroyed all but some seven or eight copies of that volume. The copies in these sets, as in all others, begin with the first leaf of text. 28452 BARROS, Decadas I-IV, 4 vols. 1628-15-COUTO, Decadas IV-IX, in 3 vols.

The second, third, and eighth books are printed in Roman letter, the others in Gothic, and there are woodcuts in the second book. It is an event of extremely rare occurrence when the whole eight books of the original Castanheda are thus found together. Even odd volumes fetch long prices. Only one copy of the eight parts is described as having passed through the market-which belonged to Colbert, Fleurieu, and Heber, in succession, and that was deficient of several leaves in various parts.
