SIEUR DE BREVE: Discours abrege des asseurer les moyens de ruiner la Monarchie des Princes Ottomans, together: Discours Historique et Politique sur les causes de la Guerre en Hongrie, Relation de la campagne de Hongrie et des combats entre les troupes Allemands et Françaises et l'armée des Turcs together: Discours Politiques sur le traité de Paix entre Léopold Empereurs des Romains et Achmet Sultan de Turquie, SIEUR DE BRICARD: Relation des voyages faits a Thunis, Projet pour l enterprise d Alger,all in: Recueil Historique contenant diverses pièces curieuses de ce temps. Cologne, 1666 First and only edition. A contemporary gathering of several accounts relating to the Levant and the confrontation with the Ottomans at the height of the Cretan War (1666). In 12mo. Contemporary fine vellum. Text clean and bright. Complete: 350 pp. From the library of the Duc de Brissac, with his fine armorial bookplate on front pastedown. Overall a fine copy. De Brève, a French diplomat and Orientalist, served for many years as French ambassador to Constantinople. Some of the contributors remain anonymous, but the whole publication reflects the urgent mobilization of that moment to support Candia and prevent its fall to the Turks. A rare and very interesting collection, absent from all major Levant libraries.
