Excerpt from Travels to Tana and Persia The volume herewith given to the members of the H akluyt Society, contains six narratives by Italians, of their travels in Persia about the time of Shah Ismail. Mr. Charles Grey, who has translated and edited four of these travels, having accompanied Sir Bartle Frere to Zanguibar, has been unable to finish the printing of his book, and the correction of his proofs has been entrusted to me. As all these travel lers were almost contemporaries, and as they refer to one another, the council have thought it best to give them to members in one single volume.
