The history of trauayle in the VVest and East Indies, and other countreys lying eyther way, towardes the fruitfull and ryche Moluccaes. : ... VVith a discourse of the Northwest passage.
This is a 1577 English travel account printed in London by Richard Jugge, compiled from voyages to the West and East Indies and the Moluccas, including Frobisher's search for a Northwest passage, and addressed to readers interested in exploration. The pictures are black-letter pages with large decorative woodcut initials, some with foliage, grotesque animals and figures, and dense columns of blackletter type that a designer could use for historical borders and drop caps.
