Wherein you shall find an exact account of the laws, government, religion, discipline, customs, &c., of the Christian people that do inhabit there, with many observations which some may improve to the advantage and increase of trade with them. Together, with a confirmation of this relation drawn from the writings of Damianus de Goes, and Jo. Scaliger, who agree with the author in many particulars. Translated by G. D.
