SIR WALTER RALEGH’S DISCOVERIE OF GUIANA in 1595. South America Orinoco Gold
SIR WALTER RALEGH’S DISCOVERIE OF GUIANA Edited by JOYCE LORIMER HAKLUYT SOCIETY 2006 25 x 17 cm. xcvii + 360 pp. HB/DJ Sir Walter Ralegh’s account of his 1595 expedition to the Orinoco in search of the fabled empire of El Dorado was an immediate publishing success and is one of the most important pieces of Elizabethan travel literature. This edition presents, on facing pages, the annotated texts of a previously unpublished copy of Ralegh’s fair manuscript draft of The Discoverie of the Large, Rich, and Bewtiful Empyre of Guiana and the subsequent printed versions, and demonstrates very clearly how Sir Robert Cecil and Ralegh’s few other serious backers induced the reluctant author to alter his manuscript for publication.
