Softcover. Hardcover 8°. 143 pages. with some illustrations, one map. good condition reprinted from London, 1693. in englischer Sprache (in english).

First edition in English; 2 vols in 1, folio (32 x 20 cm); title-page printed in red and black, 11 engraved maps and illustrations, in-text woodcuts of 'magical squares' between pages 228 and 246, armorial bookplate to front pastedown, occasional mild toning; contemporary full blind panelled calf, spine in six compartments with gilt morocco lettering piece, extremities rubbed, a very good handsome copy; [4], 144, [4, including separate title-page], 145-260 pp. A handsome copy of the first edition in English of La Loubà re's account of Siam, 'universally regarded as the finest work on seventeenth-century Thailand' (Wyatt). La Loubà re was Louis XIV's envoy to the court of Siam. Before setting out on his mission, he read widely on Siam and its history. This background knowledge, combined with objective observation, makes his book a 'magisterial description' (Lach). He returned to France in 1688 just a month after the Siamese revolution, which saw the overthrow of the pro-French King Narair and ushered in over a hundred years of anti-European policy. Notable for its publication of the "Siamese method" of constructing magic squares and for one of the earliest accounts of a parachute. Mendelssohn (1979) III, 43; Lach III (3), 1194-1196; Wing L201.

2 volumes bound as 1. Second edition, published in the same years as the first, of a comprehensive work on the history of the kingdom of Siam, "Universally regarded as the finest work on seventeenth-century Thailand" (Wyatt). The French diplomat Simon de La Loubère (1642-1729) was appointed as Louis XIV's envoy extraordinary to the court of Siam, and while he stayed in Siam for only three months he diligently and systemically asked questions, "probably stimulated by the Jesuit scientists who accompanied the mission to take more than a passing interest in Siamese cosmology, astronomy, and mathematics" (Lach & Van Kley). Loubère compensated his short stay with a thorough study of earlier writers, referring to twenty-three European authors from Pinto to Gervaise in the first volume and collecting French translations of native works in the second. Besides presenting information on Siam itself, Loubère also incorporates information on India and China and their influence on Siam's past.With the armorial bookplate of Anton Ernst Burckhard van Birckenstein (active 1686-1744) on paste-down.
