Mocenigo, Andrea (1471-1542)
Bellum Cameracense.

[Venice: per Bernardinum Venetum de Vitalibus, 1525].

First edition, octavo, text in italic type, title soiled, some spotting to contents; bound in 17th century speckled calf with gilt ruling and spine, worn, joints worn thin, some institutional blind stamps to some leaves, 5 3/4 x 3 1/2 in.

Mocenigo's work tells the history of a series of Italian battles fought between 1508 and 1516 called the War of the League of Cambrai, an anti-Venetian alliance that drew from other states in Europe and resulted in a Franco-Venetian victory formalized by the Treaties of Noyon and Brussels.

Adams M-1518; Alden 525/11 (for reference to Hispaniola on q8 verso).
