Sobre este artículo
Amsterdam : N. Israel: New York; Da Capo Press, 1971. Fine Facsimile Reprint. Hardback. An exceptional copy in simile vellum.

Notes: Reprint: London : Argonaut Press, 1929. Series: Argonaut Press 6. Contents: The travels of Marco Polo - The travels of Nicolo de' Conti in the East - Selected passages from Ramusio, etc. Subjects: Voyages and travels. Mongols - History. Asia - Description and travel. Summary: The existence of an Elizabethan translation of the Travels of Marco Polo will probably come as a surprise to the majority of readers. The present edition aims at supplying a long-felt want in Polian research--a series of maps embodying the latest work and discoveries of explorers and cartographers. The editor has been able to construct 11 entirely new maps. He has provided the work with extensive notes to considerations of Frampton's text, and to any fresh light that has been shed on the vexed question of Polo's itineraries. The work has an exhaustive index. John Frampton's translation from the Castilian of Santaella originates from a ms belonging to the Ven etian recension which is one of the most important of all the Polian recensions.
