Description

India - LUILLIER-LAGAUDIERS. Nouveau voyage aux grandes Indes, avec une instruction pour le commerce des Indes orientales ; et la description de plusieurs isles, villes, & rivières, l'histoire des plantes & des animaux qu'on y trouve. Avec un Traité des maladies particulières aux pays orientaux & dans la route, & de leurs remèdes, par Mr. D.L.F.D.E.M. Rotterdam, Ian Hofhout, 1726. In-12, [3] ff, 236 pp, [10] ff, with engraved frontispiece by D. Coster. Marbled fawn basane, ornate ribbed spine, red title page, red pages (period binding). Fine restoration to binding. Second edition (the original was Paris, 1705). Despite its three editions, this little work is not very common: little is known about the author, originally from Tours, who undertook this trip to India to accompany his cousin, who was to be married there. His journey lasted eighteen months, from January 1702 to June 1704, and contains a fairly detailed description of the countries he visited. The second part on oriental diseases, which has a separate title page, was written by the famous physician Charles Dellon (c. 1650-1710), famous for his Relation de l'Inquisition de Goa (1687). (Chadenat 2686 (1705 edition).
