[VAIRASSE d'ALAIS, Denis]. - Histoire des Sevarambes, peuples qui habitent .. la Terre Australe, contenant une relation du gouvernement; des moeurs, de la religion, & du langage de cette nation .. nouvelle edition, revue & corrigee.

Amsterdam, Estienne Roger 1716. Two volumes together in 12mo unlettered sheep (an old repair to the spine, some chipping but solid enough); frontispieces (the same in each volume as is normal) and 8 plates. ¶ Maybe the fourth or fifth French edition (there were translations into other European languages) of this fairly famous Austral imaginary voyage and utopia. With new and more plates than earlier editions but I don't know what the advertised revisions and corrections are. Davidson called this "the very rare revised edition" but doesn't elaborate. At the end is a long publisher's catalogue of music.
