Excudit Abrahamus Lichtenthaler, 1677, 2 vols in-4°, 20,5 x 16,5 cm, (8)nn pp (with title page printed in red & black) + 572 pp ; 504 pp + (138) nn pp (indices), bound in two volumes, uniform full vellum, manuscript title on spine. With a near contemporary manuscript ex-libris of the Jesuit College of Louvain (Brabant). Some slight browning and/or staining at some pages due to the paper quality but a good set. The first edition of Gallucci's history of the Dutch Revolt on the period preceding the Twelve Year Truce was published in Rome in 1671. This rare Sulzbach edition is very interesting because it comprises an extensive index (100 pp ) and also a curious dictionary of place names, military and nautical words translated from Latin in Italian and vice versa. No copy of this work in a Belgian library (Libis June 2013 lists only one copy of volume I, in Parkabdij.). .
