8vo [22 x 14 cm]; xxviii, 546 pp, frontis, maps, index. original cloth, dj (bit rubbed), else fine, clean and bright. A picture of this book is available upon request by email. Prutky, a Franciscan missionary, was sent on a mission to Ethiopia in 1751 after an invitation by the Ethiopian emperor.

The information on Ethiopia in that period is not available elsewhere.
