Pierre-Victor Cayet de Palma, 1605

CAYET DE PALMA, Pierre-Victor (1525-1610). Chronologie septenaire de l'histoire de la paix entre les Roys de France et d'Espagne. Paris: Jean Richer, 1605.



Rare first edition, first issue, of one of the earliest published accounts of Champlain's first voyage to North America. Champlain had first traveled to Canada as part of an expedition organized by Amyar de Chastres and commanded by Sieur Du Pont. This compendium of voyages also includes descriptions of Jesuit activity in the Americas and China. There are several early editions and issues with a 1605 title page; this is the first issue, with folio 20 unpaginated and and 207 mislabeled 107. Several of the early issues have the engraved title page, as here, but it is not mentioned in standard bibliographies. Alden 605⁄20 (not mentioning engraved title). See Harrisse, Nouvelle France 395 and Sabin 11627 (1609 editions).



Octavo (161 x 104mm). Without 2 errata leaves at end. Engraved additional title (letterpress title, some headlines, and some shoulder notes just shaved, some browning; leaf Ggg5 repaired at bottom with portions of about 6 lines in facsimile). 18th-century mottled calf, spine gilt in compartments, edges red (rubbed). Provenance: Louis Thomas Richard D'Aubigny, 1747-1824 (monogrammed bookplate).
