Entered by Jefferson in his undated manuscript catalogue, with the price,

This work is analysed and criticised, with long quotations, by Jean Baptiste Labat, in the Preface to his
Nouveau Voyage aux Isles de l’Amerique
, q.v. no. 4150. From Labat’s analysis commentators have drawn the conclusion that Durret never visited the countries he describes, and that
he compiled his work from the relations of Feuillé and others.

7.19. The work is entered without price on his undated manuscript catalogue.
Tomas Tamayo de Vargas, 1588-1641, Spanish historian, succeeded Antonio de Herrera as chronicler of Castile, and later succeeded Luis Tribaldo de
Toledo as chronicler of the Indies. The date 1626 ascribed by Antonio to the first edition has been followed by other writers,
but the approbation and license of the book were dated January 20, 1628, so that it seems probable that this is the first
edition.
