Description

This reference work is a reprint of the 1694 translation of Moreri's classic reference work (originally published in 1674 in French).

The two volumes contain a mixture of histiographical, geographical and poetical information.

They chronicle the lives and actions of celebrated people from the time as well as offering invaluable information on various world-wide regions, empires and kingdoms. Containing over 25,000 entries, the English edition is generally considered superior to the French, as an additional section on the English, Scottish and Irish nobility was added.
