S[tansby], 1611.⁂ A superb, complete copy of this major travel guide. Coryate (?1577-1617) studied at Oxford without taking a degree and ended up at the court of James I, where he gained considerable popularity as a wit and buffoon. He used money inherited from his father to travel, setting off in 1608 and visiting some 45 cities in 7 countries in 5 months on foot, by cart, boat and horse. It is reckoned he covered almost 2,000 miles, over half of which was accomplished in one pair of shoes, mended only once and, on his return, hung up in the church at Odcombe in Somerset (his place of birth), where they remained for over a century. Despite his achievements, he found it difficult to get the account of his journies published and so appealed to all he knew to write commendatory verses about himself and the book. Among the more than 60 contributors of mock-heroic verse were Ben Jonson (acrostic on b4), John Donne, Inigo Jones, George Chapman and Michael Drayton. Provenance: George Steevens (1736-1800, commentator on Shakespeare, friend of Samuel Johnson, ink stamp on title verso); Dudley C. Marjoribanks (leather bookplate).

The map of the world is based on Ortelius; the missing map is found in very few copies and the leaf of letterpress by R. Field, dated to c.1590, may represent a later issue. This copy has the chain lines in gathering F horizontal, denoting a first issue.Provenance: Henry Villiers Stuart, Baron Stuart de Decies (1803-74) - his arms on upper cover.

ESTC calls for a half-title, though it would appear that this may have been confused with the licence leaf.Provenance: J.O. Halliwell (bookplate, recording it as a gift to Penzance Library, and small ink stamp of the latter on title).
