[EAN: 9789727870363], [SC: 47.51], [PU: Lisbon, Comissão Nacional para as Comemorações dos Descobrimentos Portugueses, 2001.], HISTORY, BRAZIL, PORTUGAL, MINING, MINERAL WEALTH, GOLD, MINAS GERAIS, Large 8°, original illustrated wrappers. As new. 491 pp., (1 l., 10 ll. color plates, printed on both sides), maps and a full page facsimile of the title page of the original edition in text. *** This edition contains introductory material (pp. 7-56), extensive annotations to the main text, indexes (including an analytical index, pp. 463-84), a documentary appendix (pp. 345-442), and a bibliography (pp. 445-62). The original edition of 1711 was suppressed, due to the information about the wealth of Brazil which the Portuguese crown did not find convenient to publicize; it was little known until the nineteenth century, on account of its rarity. Diniz Silva identifies seven copies: in the BN, Lisboa; BN, Paris; British Museum (i.e. British Library); two in the BN, Rio de Janeiro; the Faculdade de Direito da Universidade de São Paulo; and one in Rio de Janeiro which belonged to a "bibliófilo francês" (Jacques Renout?); to these we can add a copy in the Biblioteca da Ajuda, formerly in the library of the Palácio das Necessidades. The copy mentioned as belonging to the French bibliophile living in Rio de Janeiro is very possibly the same one purchased by us at Sotheby's London in November 2002, which came out of France, and is now in the John Carter Brown Library. ***<
