Add to basketFirst edition of the English translation of the notable biography of the fourth viceroy of Portuguese India, D. João de Castro (Lisbon, 1500 - Goa, 1548). De Castro was a renowned 16th-century Portuguese nobleman, scientist, naval officer, and writer. As a young man, he studied under the famous Portuguese mathematician and cosmo…grapher Pedro Nunes together with Luis, Duke of Beja, the second son of King Manuel I of Portugal. They became lifelong friends and Castro also accompanied Dom Luis to the siege of Tunis in 1535.De Castro sailed with, served under, and was connected to several prominent 16th-century Portuguese (noble-) men. His uncle, Garcia de Noronha, was the third viceroy of India, with whom he first sailed for India in the late 1530s. There, De Castro participated in the relief of Diu, which was besieged as part of the struggle for the possession of Diu and its fort due to its strategic importance as an outpost and dominance in that part of Portuguese India. He was responsible for the overthrow of Mahmud, King of Gujarat, whose interests threatened the Portuguese control of Goa coast. Furthermore, De Castro also served under Estêvão da Gama, second son of the famous Portuguese explorer Vasco da Gama, on expeditions to Suez and the Red Sea. Back in Portugal, in 1543, he was named commander of a fleet sent to clear Atlantic Europe of pirates, and two years later was sent with a fleet of six ships back to the East, where he was rewarded with the positions of governor and viceroy of Portuguese India. Unlike previous governors and viceroys of India, De Castro was actively interested in Indian culture and religion. De Castro was possibly also connected to Saint Francis Xavier, who served in the Jesuit mission in Portuguese India in the 1540s, as he was supposed to have died in Xavier's arms in 1548.During his travels between Portugal and India, including the expeditions he undertook with Da Gama along the Arabian coasts and to Egypt, De Castro collected important navigational, geographical and hydrographical information about these areas, which he presented in three "rutters" or itineraries/logbooks (in Portuguese: roteiros): Roteiro de Lisboa a Goa about his first voyage to India in 1538, Roteiro de Goa a Diu (written around 1539, regarding De Castro's rescue fleet relieving the Gujurati-Ottoman siege of the Portuguese fortress of Diu, and Roteiro do Mar Roxo (the Red Sea between East Africa and the Arabian Peninsula was then known as the "purple sea" - Mar Roxo). In his first rutter, De Castro recorded values of magnetic declination in the Atlantic and Indian Oceans, which he obtained through experiments with a magnetic needle on board. This early observation of the phenomenon of magnetic declination in the sixteenth century was useful for the study of terrestrial magnetism in later centuries.The hinges are somewhat weakened, the boards are slightly rubbed, both pastedowns have come loose from the inside of the boards, revealing an inscription on the inside of the front board in brown ink "H. 1. 13 [crossed out]" and "C 7. 18", and an inscription in brown ink on the recto of the front paste-down "E F G H". Some occasional, very minor foxing, the foot edge of the 15 leaves is very slightly damages, not affecting the text in any way.

(Sabin 6333) Signed by Oliver Hazard Perry on front free endpaper, with the following inscription: "Com'o. O.H. Perry / US Ship John Adams." Additional signature by his wife (Elizabeth Champlin Mason Perry) below the signature: "Mrs. E.C. Perry / Feb'y 1845 / Brooklyn." Provenance: Book was passed down through the Perry family. Sold at Sotheby's, 2018. In 1818, the Perry-Elliott affair came to a head when Perry wrote to Navy Secretary Benjamin Crowninshield preferring court-martial charges against his former subordinate. Not wishing to expose the nation to the controversial aspect of Perry's splendid victory on Lake Erie, President James Monroe offered the prestigious title of "Commodore" to Oliver if he'd drop the charges against Elliott. Upon accepting that offer in early 1819 Perry set sail for the Orinoco River, Venezuela, aboard the frigate John Adams (carrying this very book with him) accompanied by the schooner Nonsuch, there to discourage piracy, while maintaining friendly diplomatic relations with the Republic of Venezuela and the Republic of Buenos Aires. Shifting his flag to the shallow-draft Nonsuch Perry sailed upriver to Angostura to negotiate an anti-piracy agreement with President Simon Bolivar. A favorable treaty was signed on August 11 with Vice-President Francisco Antonio Zea in the absence of Bolivar (who was engaged in the liberation of New Granada), but when the schooner started downriver, many of her crew, including Perry, had been stricken with yellow fever. Despite the crew's efforts to reach Trinidad for medical assistance, the commodore died on board Nonsuch on August 23, 1819, his 34th birthday, as the ship was nearing Port of Spain, his flagship John Adams in sight. He was buried in Port of Spain with great honors while the Nonsuch's crew acted as honor guard. Perry's remains were taken back to the United States in 1826 and interred in Newport, Rhode Island. Originally interred in the Old Common Burial Ground, his body was eventually moved to Newport's Island Cemetery. The first American edition of Spanish America, from the personal library of Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry, inscribed by him enroute to South America aboard the U.S.S. John Adams. (illustrator).

Add to basketTitle: 1616 Petrus Kaerius Map of Southern India and Ceylon ? Narsinga et Ceylon This rare early 17th-century copper engraved map titled 'Narsinga et Ceylon' was created by Petrus Kaerius (Pieter van den Keere) and published in 1616. It depicts the southern part of the Indian subcontinent, including the Coromandel and Malabar co…asts, and the island of Ceylon (modern Sri Lanka), with remarkable detail for its size. The map comes from 'Caert-Thresoor', a pocket atlas first issued in 1598 and reprinted with updated plates through the early 17th century. Key features include coastal towns such as Goa, Cochin, and Colombo, mountain ranges shown pictorially, and decorative cartouches framing the title and scale. It shows Portuguese place names such as Capelo and Dodolfsio, reflecting the Portuguese maritime dominance in the Indian Ocean during this period. The seas are labelled 'Mare Indicum' (Indian Ocean) and 'Sinus Gangeticus' (Bay of Bengal). The engraving is signed Petrus Kaerius caelavit in the scale cartouche, attesting to Kaerius' role as both engraver and mapmaker. Pieter van den Keere (Kaerius) was a prominent Dutch engraver and cartographer active in Amsterdam in the late 16th and early 17th centuries. His 'Caert-Thresoor' pocket maps were among the earliest affordable atlas maps available to merchants and scholars, preceding Blaeu's and Mercator's popular works. Maps from this series remain prized for their compact yet detailed style and historical value. Condition report: The map is in good condition for its age with strong engraving impressions. There is light age toning and minor foxing, with a few small edge nicks not affecting the image. The verso shows Latin text. Framing tips: This map will display elegantly in a slim black or dark wood frame with a gold inner edge to reflect its early 17th-century aesthetic. Pair it with a cream or warm ivory mat to highlight the paper's natural tone, making it ideal for libraries, studies, or map collections focused on early colonial and maritime Asia.
