The fold-out engraved plates here include spectacular views of Alexandria, Cairo, Mecca and the Vatican. In addition, Myeller provides illustrations of flora and fauna encountered on his travels, as well as archeological sites.

Foulques de Villaret, the Grand Master of the Sovereign Order of St. John of Jerusalem.
