116. Voyage de Paul Lucas, dans la Grece, l'Asie Mineure, la Macedoine, et
l' Afrique. Paris, 1712. 2 vols. 12mo. - The credit and veracity of this
author, which was long suspected, has, in many of his most suspicious
parts, been confirmed by modern travellers.
117. Memoire du Chevalier D'Arvieux: contenant ses Voyages a
Constantinople, dans l'Asie, la Palestine, l'Egypte, la Barbarie, &c.
Paris, 1735. 6 vols. 12mo. - This author was well qualified from his
knowledge of the oriental languages, and from the official situations he
filled, to gain an accurate and minute knowledge of the people among whom
he resided. His account of his sojourn among the Bedouin Arabs is
particularly curious.
118. Viaggi di P. della Valle dall Anno 1614, fin al' 1626. Venice, 1671. 4
vols. 4to. - These travels comprehend Turkey, Egypt, Palestine, Persia,
and the East Indies. They are written in a pleasant, lively manner; what
relates to Persia is most valuable. They have been translated into French,
English, and German.

originally published in Swedish, was translated by C. Linnaeus into German,
under the following title: Reise nach den Spanischen Landern in Europa und

122. The true Travels of Captain J. Smith in Europe, Asia, Africa, and
America, from 1593 to 1629. London, 1664. fol. - This work, like most of
the old travels, derives its principal value from enabling us to compare
the countries visited, and their inhabitants, with their present state; and
its principal interest from the personal adventures of the author. To such
works, as well as to minute biography, time gives a value and utility,
which they do not intrinsically possess.

et demum ad Aquilonem, ab. Arch. Madrignan. 1508. fol. - Originally

of the author already noticed.
