notes:
Text describes three trees; two are illustrated here. Ninety percent of the information in this book is from López de Gómara's Historia de las Indias and was probably translated and adapted by Emir Mehmet ibn Emir Hasan el-Suudi [?] in 1580. This is the first illustrated book ever to be produced on an Ottoman printing press.
