SOUSA, D. António Caetano de.- Historia genealogica da Casa Real Portugueza, desde a sua origem até o presente, com as familias illustres, que procedem dos Reys, e dos Serenissimos Duques de Bragança.- Lisboa Occidental: Na Officina de Joseph Antonio da Sylva, 1735-1749.- 22 vols.: il.; 29 cm.- E., A monumental work, it can be considered a general history of the Kingdom, so varied is the information it contains. The Evidences are also of undeniable interest, since, in particular, they transcribe documents that have since disappeared. The copy matches exactly the description given to us by Inocêncio, although the volumes were bound differently, that is: the first 12 volumes of the History are bound in 15 volumes (volumes XI and XII were each divided into two bindings); The six volumes of the Proofs and the Index volume follow. First volume missing the engraved frontispiece and portrait of the author. The fourth volume contains engravings of royal seals, medals and coins minted in Portugal since the beginning of the monarchy. Exceptionally clean and solid copy, also due to the good quality of the paper on which it was printed. Contemporary binding, fully flecked sheepskin (all the same), with gold closed panels on the spines and carminated edges; some spines with imperfections and signs of wormholes; volume V of History with some superficial damage to the covering of the back cover. All volumes feature the modern ex-libris of Pombeiro de Riba Vizella, pasted on the front pages or on the free endpapers. Inocêncio, I, p. 101. Samodães, 3241.
