Such is the claim made for the previously unknown manuscripts here published for the first time. They are two documents copied about 1440 from much earlier originals, now lost. The first is an account of Friar John of Plano Carpini's mission to the Mongols in 1245~47. The second is a world map, including the western ocean, with delineations of Iceland, Greenland, and a land mass named Vinland which represents the North American mainland as known to the medieval Norsemen. This map is the earliest known and indisputable cartographic representation of any part of the Americas. Thomas E. Marston, Curator of Medieval and Renaissance Literature in the Yale University Library, describes the chance circumstances of the discovery of the two documents, which had become separated from a manuscript of Vincent de Beauvais into which they had been originally bound. Mr. Marston establishes the close association of the Vinland Map with the "Tartar Relation"~the account of the Mongols. George D. Painter, Assistant Keeper of Printed Books in the British Museum, who has edited the Tartar account, also analyzes the relationship of the three elements of the original Beauvais manuscript and reconstructs its bibliographical history. R. A. Skelton, Superintendent of the Map Room of the British Museum, describes the Vinland Map and its geography in relation to its sources and analyzes its historical importance. As the editors show, the Tartar Relation provides information on Mongol history and legend not to be found in any known source, and a portion of the Map represents the only surviving medieval example based on Norse cartography~ a conclusion with far~reaching implications for the history of cartography and of the Viking navigations.

VG orig. cream canvas in price-clipped illus. dj. xvi, 114 p.; front. (bustof Thomas Pelham-Holles, Duke of Newcastle, by Isaac Gosset); 23.5 cm. OnWhig preferment in 1741 From the front jacket flap: Intrigue, humor, and illuminating insights into the social structure of eighteenth-century Englandare entwined in this engaging work of historical craftsmanship.The essenceof the story unfolded in Chichester Towers is simple: a certain archdeaconwho was offered a deanery inan English cathedral wrote a letter stating why he should decline the offer. Reading the letter, then pursuing its implications, is like tossing a pebble into a pool and watching the ever-wideningrings on the surface of the water. A contested by-election for the countyof Sussex is going on at the same time. That most famous of borough-mongers, the Duke of Newcastle, happens to be directing the electoral campaign inSussex for Sir Robert Walpole's declining administration and on that account, no less than for the Whig cause in general, has offered the vacant deanery to a master wirepuller, the Rev. Thomas Ball, Archdeacon of Chichester.In tracking down the personalities and machinations that lie implicit in the letter, Mr. Curtis soon fills the stage with a galaxy of characters who act out a historical comedy of almost inconceivable complexity. Two meaningsreveal themselves as intimately associated: the story illustrates what used to be known as the alliance between church and state; and it suggests thedegree to which ecclesiastical politics were subordinated to the secular needs of the state. The author mirrors eighteenth-century English society, revealing fascinating aspects of the structure of social subordination and political gamesmanship. Inherently the story has a timeless significance. 1st edition. Binding is Hardcover.

First Edition
Two-tone cloth, gilt cover device, printed in red and black, 29 cm, 8vo, xii, 83 pp, plates, ills(some colour). From the introduction: "A series of fortunate circumstances has produced a body of evidence pointing strongly to the possibility that Gutenberg, the inventor of printing with movable type on a press, had a major share in the early development - if not the actual invention - of copper engraving. Relief printing from type and intaglio printing from engraved plates have hitherto been considered separate, independent graphic processes. Now it appears that the earliest known copper engraver, the so-called Master of the Playing Cards, was associated with Gutenberg. It is possible to prove that the iconography of the Master was not, as hitherto believed, his own invention, but developed from sources used simultaneously and in the same locality by illuminators active in Mainz in the 1450s, among them artists connected in some way with Gutenberg's workshop. A new concept of Gutenberg's creative dream is emerging. There remains little doubt that he envisaged the typographic reproduction in color of the medieval liturgical manuscripts current in his time. He was developing mechanical means for the multiplication of manuscripts, including not only the writing, the initials, and the calligraphic ornamentation but apparently also illuminated miniatures and borders. The engravings of the Master of the Playing Cards, it seems, were not created a priori for a card game, but as technical stepping-stones toward the multiple reproduction of miniatures. Only when Gutenberg's financial disaster closed the Mainz workshop to him were these engravings utilized commercially for the production of playing cards."
