JESUIT RELATIONS] ANDRADE, ANTONIO DE. Lettere Annue del Tibet del MDCXXVI, et della Cina del MDCXXIV... ... Rome: Francesco Corbelletti, 1628. First edition. Later vellum. 6 inches (15 cm); 130 pp., including title page. Paper lightly toned, an excellent copy. Father Andrade ventured from Delhi to Tibet via the Mana Pass in 1624, and (on a second trip) established a missionary center. He was likely the first European in Tibet, and this account is of prime importance in the history of the region. The first letter contained here (pages 3-58) is Andrade's; that of Venceslao Pantaleone occupies the rest of the book. Estate of Braham Norwick
