Luke Foxe voyage account (North-West Fox, 1635) - 1 frontispiece and title page

The author's account of his 1631 voyage in search of the Northwest Passage through Hudson Strait, exploring Hudson Bay and Foxe Basin. The book contains an engraved fold-out map of the author's route. The frontispiece depicts an armillary sphere.
The Globe, which forms a frontispiece, through its having been printed on the fly-sheet, is very often missing. It was evidently printed from the identical block used in [John] Davis's Seaman's Secret (Lond., 4to, 1607).— Miller Christy, in: Christy, Miller , ed.
