This volume is a translation of Robert Coverte's "A true and almost incredible Report of an Englishman, that (being cast away in the good Ship called The Assention, in Cambaya, the farthest Part of the East Indies) Travelled by Land through many unknowne Kingdomes, and Great Cities." first published in 1612. Coverte and his men were among the first Englishmen to see the Cape of Good Hope, in July 1608. Penrose describes this account as a "vigorous narrative.it relates its author's reception by the Emperor Jahangir, and his tedious journey across India, Afghanistan, and Persia, and as such is one of the best examples of a travel journal that the period produced." "This celebrated collection of voyages, which was doubtless suggested by the success that had attended the publications of the series by the brothers De Bry: is in some respects an imitation of these., in others it is superior" (Sabin). Indeed de Bry did publish Coverte's account in the second section of Part XI of his "Small Voyages". Church 306; JCB 1: 493; Sabin 33668. Catalogued by Kate Hunter.…
