    8°, original printed wrappers (missing about 2 cm. at top; spine defective). Lithograph vignette on title page. In good condition. Signature of Manuel Caetano da Cruz in bottom margin of front wrapper. 54 pp., lithographic frontisportrait of Feijó. *** FIRST and ONLY EDITION. Diogo Antônio Feijó was ordained Roman Catholic priest on 25 February 1809. He was elected (1821) to the Portuguese Côrtes to represent Brazil. Along with other Brazilian deputies Feijó refused to sign the Portuguese Constitution and later criticized the authoritarian nature of the first Brazilian Constitution (1824). As a deputy in the General Assembly (1826-1829, 1830-1833), Feijó attacked the regime of Emperor Pedro I. After the emperor's abdication (7 April 1831) and the election of the Permanent Regency (17 June 1831), Feijó assumed the office of justice minister, but failed to bring social reconciliation and resigned (3 August 1832). In July 1833 he was elected senator and served on the Statistics Committee (1834). Political instability in Brazil of early 1830s brought about the adoption of the Additional Act (Ato Adicional, 1834) changing the structure of government. Feijó was elected to the post of sole regent of the Empire (7 Apr 1835). His government attempted to stop the process of disintegration, but had to deal with two major revolts in the provinces of Para (revolt known as Cabanagem) and Rio Grande do Sul (Farroupilha). With his health declining and facing severe criticism, Feijó resigned the office of regent on 19 September 1837 and was succeeded by Pedro de Araújo Lima. He returned to the Senate as its president (1839), but suffered a hemorrhage, which left him partially paralyzed. In 1842 Feijó sided with the liberals, who rose in arms protesting against the outcome of parliamentary elections. He was arrested during the suppression of the revolution by the Duke of Caxias and exiled to Vitória, Espírito Santo. A few months later he was freed and returned to São Paulo. The author, a native of Alagoas (born 1816), took his degree in medicine from the Faculdade de Medicina in Bahia. He was a vocal opponent of João Vicente Martins when the latter introduced Hahnemann's homoeopathic medicine to Brazil, but after a few months saw the merits of Martins' arguments and became an an equally vocal proponent, publishing numerous books on the subject. He also published many political, historical and literary works, and was editor of the Correio mercantil, a daily newspaper in Bahia, and founder of the newspaper O Medico do povo.*** For the author, see Sacramento Blake I, 34-38, who does not mention this title.

A fine set. Bookplates of D. Manuel II. Royal monogram of D.

Borba had never seen a copy of the first edition of the second volume. This set has the first issue of volume IV, with the original third leaf rather than the cancel leaf usually encountered.This collection has many fascinating and important works on Brazil, including a letter by José de Anchieta, S.J., on São Paulo; Jeronymo de Albuquerque's notes on Maranhão; descriptions of the Madeira, Amazon and Negro rivers, and of Bahia and Grão Pará. There are also accounts of voyages by Cadamosto, Cabral, Vespucci and Magalhães, as well as a work on Ceylon. Many of the texts are published here for the first time.The six folding tables in volume VI are numbered IV, IV-A, V, VI, VII and VIII. Borba calls for six folding tables, unnumbered. They are not mentioned in any of the other references consulted, except for Azevedo Samodães, which refers to "algumas ff. desdobraveis". We have been informed that the two copies of volume VI of this work at the Harvard University Library both contain six folding tables numbered as in the present copy. One of the sets at Harvard conforms exactly to the collation of the present one. The other has volume II in the second edition, and volume IV in the second issue.*** Borba de Moraes (1983) I, 189-190: giving the date of the second edition of vol. II, but not the first; giving the date of vol. V, part 1 as 1839 rather than 1836: describes the collection as "becoming scarce"; with a complete list of the contents; cf. the minor differences in the collation given by Borba and that given for our set, above.
