1857 BEAUTIFUL BINDING Voyages of Portuguese Fernao Pinto INDIA China Muslims
A rare historical book in an exquisite, decorative binding!
‘Portuguese Expeditions to the East Indies’, by Fernão Mendes Pinto, is a mid-19th-century history of Pinto’s own voyages. Pinto was a Portuguese explorer known for his voyages to India, China, and Japan, and following his adventures, published a memoir of his journeys. Curiously, most of the claims made in his book have been proved as exaggerated including his battle against Muslims in Java. Even though there are notes of inaccuracy, Pinto’s ‘Memoirs’ are a fine account of life in 16th-century Asia.
