2 parts in 1 volume. Very rare early (3rd?) Portuguese edition of a romanticized life of the Scottish Capucin friar George Leslie (d. 1637), known as "Father Archangel'', written by the Italian Archbishop of Fermo, Giovanno Battista Rinuccini, originally published in Italian with the title Il Cappuccino Scozzese (Macerata, Agostino Grisei, 1644) and in the present Portuguese translation in 1667 (the first part abbreviated from a 1657 Portuguese edition and the second translated from a 1662(?) French edition). All early editions are rare: we have located only two other copies of the present one, at the National Library of Scotland and the John Carter Brown Library.The Lisbon bookseller and publisher Joseph da Cruz Cardozo signed the dedication to João Mascarenhas (1699-post 1723), who became the 7th Count of Santa Cruz on the death of his father in 1723 but was forced to renounce the title due to his incestuous relation with his mother. Of special interest is the beautiful and finely executed early 18th-century Portuguese binding.With manuscript annotations, a library stamp and a library label. Spine damaged, head margin cut short, a piece cut out of the fore-edge margin of title-page (not affecting the woodcut or text), probably to remove. A rare popular religious biography, in a beautiful contemporary binding and in good condition.l DNB 33, pp. 90-91; KVK & WorldCat (1 copy plus a digitized 2nd copy); cf. Borba de Moraes, pp. 155-156; not in Porbase. Contemporary richly gold-tooled calf, each board with arabesque decorations forming a large circular fan as centrepiece and a fan cornerpiece in each corner, with a bird at the head of each board, the whole in an ornamental stippled frame, gold-tooled board edges, gilt and gauffered edges. With a general title-page with a woodcut portrait of a monk (in the centre of a large rosette) and a divisional title-page for the second part of the text, woodcut crowned Mascarenhas coat of arms (though the gules/red and or/gold seem to have been interchanged) opening the dedication to the 9-year-old future 7th Count of Santa Cruz, João Mascarenhas (the divisional title-page for part 2 includes a dedication to his father the 6th Count Martinho Mascarenhas), woodcut headpieces tailpieces and decorated initials.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - 2023 Firebird Book Awards Winner for Epic FictionCover Art by Stephen Youll (A Game of Thrones, Dune)Dive into a universe where the vibrant adventure of Indiana Jones and Uncharted meets the rich space fantasy of Dune and Star Wars. Welcome to the future of Mars-a realm teetering on the edge of discovery and disaster.Earth is no more. Only the legends of the past remain, whispered among the settlers of Mars. The red deserts hide secrets, some ancient, some terrifyingly new. But for Raymond Redmin, a man from the 21st century mysteriously transported 200 years into the future, the biggest secret is his own presence on the planet.The vast, intricate lore and history of this world is ripe for exploration. Walk the shifting sands alongside a medley of characters reminiscent of the American Wild West, the fearless soldiers of Starship Troopers and Halo, and the ageless courage of the noble heroes from Lord of the Rings. Traverse a terrain dotted with exo-mechs, towering humanoid machines echoing the majesty of Gundam and Mechwarrior.Amidst the volatile politics of Martian factions, Raymond and his eclectic band-including a brave Frontier woman, a noble squad of superhuman soldiers, a brash gunslinging cowboy, a community of benevolent androids, an apprehensive drone pilot, and a loyal robotic fox-embark on a mission. Their goal Keep the remnants of Raymond's crashed spaceship from falling into the wrong hands, and prevent the peaceful town of Remnant from being swept up into a war that will embroil the entire planet.Witness narratives intertwining, challenges escalating, and mysteries unveiling as the odyssey races toward a climax reminiscent of cinematic epics. Themes of honor, valor, and unforeseen romance are masterfully woven into the fabric of this adventure. And lurking behind it all, the looming question-what truly is the Red Tomorrow The Earth is gone, but our greatest adventure awaits.Raymond Redmin, a doctor from the 21st century, suddenly awakens aboard a malfunctioning spaceship. He has no recollection of how or why he ended up here, hundreds of years in the future, crashing down to the planet Mars. It has apparently been 185 years since the Earth went 'silent.' The colonists of Mars have since created their own society. After centuries of war, the planet is now ruled by the utopian Zeltan Kingdom, a race of genetically engineered superhumans. However, all of the disparate factions of the planet are coming to descend upon the crash site of Raymond's ship. Although his sudden appearance may yield some answers as to what has happened to Earth, war threatens to engulf the nearby peaceful settlement town of Remnant on the red deserts of the Frontier.Raymond, along with a fearless young woman of the Frontier, noble Zeltan supersoldiers, benevolent androids, a quick-drawing cowboy, and faithful robotic fox companion, they set off on a harrowing journey to prevent the ship's technology from falling into the wrong hands. Encountering menacing cyborg pirates, experimental hordes of the undead, savage evolved beasts of a treacherous dark forest, and giant robotic humanoid battle suits called exo-mechs, these heroes are the last hope for the red tomorrow.The Red Frontier beckons. Are you prepared to answer the call Delve into a tale of duty, destiny, and the hope for a brighter tomorrow.…
