About this Item

Folio. 22 x 34 cm. Modern qtr. vellum and marbled boards. 40 columns and [2}pp. 12 leaves printed on both sides and tipped in map of Ireland, Scotland, Greenland and Iceland and 3 engravings in the text.Translated from Hakluyt (The Three Voyages of Martin Frobisher). ?Martin Frobisher was an English seaman who made three voyages to the New World to look for the Northwest Passage. All landed in northeastern Canada, around today's Resolution Island and Frobisher Bay. On his second voyage, Frobisher found what he thought was gold ore and carried it home on three ships, where initial assaying determined it to be worth a profit of � 5.1 per ton. Encouraged, Frobisher returned to Canada with an even larger fleet and dug several mines around Frobisher Bay.?.Sabin, 25998; OCLC Number: 68939702.FROBISHER (Martin). Drie Seldsame Scheeps-Togten.
