Note generali

"A relation of a voyage made by the Sieur de Montauban, captain of the French privateers, on the coasts of Guinea, in the year 1695" has special t.p. and separate paging.

The authorship of the work was denied by De Tonti, although it is apparently based on a narrative written by him. Cf. Sabin; Chalevoix, P.F.X. Histoire ... de la Nouvelle France, 1744, t. 2, p. 260.
