Extensively illustrated with engraved maps, 1592-1644. Some oversize plates, folded in. Some pages are torn. Probably the middle section of a larger text; front and back sections are missing.

Clark St." (532 Dearborn, 1702 LaSalle, crossed out); verso: "Berey, Nicholas." Card 2, recto: "Rheins, Louis J., Two Rivers, [xxx?], 2 pairs, Donor 1[?] 5021[?]; verso:"Secco, Fernando Alvares, Portugallia [1630?]."
