694.  The Natural History of Aleppo, and parts adjacent.  By Alex.  Rumel. 2 vols. 4to. 1794.—­This excellent work was translated into German by Gmelin, with valuable annotations.

695.  Mariti’s Travels through Cyprus, Syria, and Palestine. 3 vols. 8vo.—­The original work in Italian consists of 5 volumes.  On all that relates to Cyprus, this work is particularly interesting and full; there is also much information regarding it in Sonnini’s Travels.

696.  Kinnear’s Journey though Asia Minor, Armenia, and Koordestan, 1812-14. 8vo.—­This work will be particularly interesting to those who wish to trace the marches of Alexander, and the retreat of the ten thousand, on which points of history Mr. Kinnear has made some judicious remarks.

697.  Beaufort’s Karamania. 1818. 8vo.—­A valuable addition to the maritime geography and antiquities of a part of Asia Minor not often described.

698.  Reisebescriebung von Arabien.  Von C. Niebuhr.  Copenhagen, 1772. 4to.

699.  Reisebescriebung nach Arabien.  Von C. Niebuhr.  Copenhagen 1774-1778. 2 vols. 4to.

700.  Recueil des Questions proposees a une societe des Savans, qui, par ordre de S.M.  Danoise, font le Voyage de l’Arabie.  Par M. Michaelis.  Frankfort, 1753. 4to.

701.  Pet.  Forskal Descriptiones Animalium, Avium, &c. &c. in Itinere Orientale observatorum.  Hafnioe, 1775. 4to.

702.  Pet.  Forskal Icones rerum naturalium, quas in Itinere Orient, depingi curavit.  Hafnioe, 1776. 4to.—­Every thing preparatory to, and connected with the travels of Niebuhr and his associate, was judiciously and well planned and executed:  the selection of Michaelis to draw up the enquiries and observations to be made; those he actually proposed:  and the learned men sent out, who were respectively conversant in physics, natural history, geography, and the connected and auxiliary branches of science.  Hence resulted most admirable works on Arabia:  those of Niebuhr, together with Michaelis, have been translated into French, in 4 vols. 4to.  The English translation, besides omitting the most valuable and scientific parts, is, in other respects, totally unworthy of the original.

703.  Il Viaggio dell Ambrosio Contarini, Ambasciatore della Signiora di Venetia, al Uxam Cassan, Re de Persia.  Ven. 1543, 12mo.

704.  Relacion de Don Juan de Persia, en III Libros.  Vallad. 1604. 4to.

705.  Chardin, Voyages en Persie, et autres lieux de l’Orient.  Amsterd. 3 vols. 4to. 1711.—­It may justly be said of these travels, that by means of them, Persia was made better known in every thing relating to its civil, military, religious, intellectual, moral, scientific, and statistical condition, than any other part of Asia, at the period when they were published.  Very few travellers are more to be depended upon than Chardin.
