Large woodcut device on title of an armorial shield between two columns, author’s arms on license leaf at end, woodcut historiated initials. (Small repair to top corner of A1, occasional browning and light waterstaining.) 20th-century red morocco with gilt arms of the Duque de Almazan within gilt borders, gilt spine, turn-ins and edges.

FIRST EDITION OF THIS CLASSIC RARITY ON THE CHASE. It ‘was the first Castilian printed book on hunting and the first to deal with its legal and moral aspects. Avendaño wrote the Aviso to show the Castilian aristocracy its responsibilities regarding hunting. He argued that hunting was made legal by natural law and ius gentium and could be controlled by the monarch only when hunting threatened the public interest’ (John Marshall Carter, ‘Medieval Sport’ in Journal of Sport History, vol. 9, no. 1, Spring 1982, p.71). In fact, the author who was widely known as a mathematician, was not Castilian but Portuguese. Gutierrez de la Vega 180: 'libro muy raro'; Harting 235; Palau 197084; Salva 2651: 'raro'; Schwerdt II, p.46; Souhart 354.
