Cleveland: The World Publishing Company, 1966. Facsimile Edition. Printed and bound in Italy. With original clamshell case with copies of the title pages of the two works on the front and back.

Bound in vellum styled cloth with the gilded arms of Kings James I and Charles I on the front. Solid, square, and in new condition. Two cloth ties present, and cover overlaps the long edge as many antiquarian vellum bindings do. No pictures of the interior due to the tightness of the binding, but the interior is a facsimile in look and feel of the original works first published in 1628 (The World Encompassed) and 1619 (The Relation of a Wonderful Voiage).
