[18] Paesi nouamente retrouati, et nouo Mondo da Alberico Vesputio Florentino intitulato. The volume has often been catalogued under the name of Vespucius (the only name that appears upon its titlepage). It has been ascribed to Zorzi on the authority of a note by Humboldt in his Examen critique, iv. 79. Harrisse, in describing the book (Bibliotheca Americana vetustissima, no. 48, pp. 96d-99), accepted this statement; but in the Appendix to the volume, at p. 469, he says that M. d’Avezac has pointed out that Zorzi collected only some additional manuscript matter in a copy in the Magliabechian Library. Harrisse, therefore, in the Additions to his Bibliotheca, published in 1872, reinserts the title (no. 26, pp. 34-38), and credits the volume to Montalboddo. There is a copy in Harvard College Library, dated Nov. 17, 1508, which is supposed to be of the second edition. The work was translated into French, German, Dutch, and Latin. There is a bibliography of the book in the papers on “Ptolemy’s Geography,” sub anno 1511, in the Bulletin of Harvard University, 1882-1883. [Cf. Vol. II. Index, and Bib. Am. Vet.
