PILGRIMAGES TO THE HOLY LAND. In an article in the _Retrospective Review_ (2nd Series, vol. ii. p. 234.) it is stated that the first book ever printed concerning Pilgrimages to the Holy Land was the _Peregrinatio Bernhardi de Breydenbach_, Moguntiæ, 1486; and in the Preface to the _Pylgrymage of Sir Richard Guylforde to the Holy Land in 1506_, lately published by the Camden Society, the learned editor remarks that the work of Bernhard de Breydenbach, _Opus transmarinæ Peregrinationis ad venerandum et gloriosum Sepulchrum dominicum in Jherusalem_ (fol. Mogunt. 1486), is believed to be the first book of travels that was printed. Having by me notes of five works printed earlier than that of Breydenbach just mentioned,--and all of these, with one exception, being Pilgrimages to the Holy Land,--I forward them for publication in "N. & Q.," and probably some of your correspondents may be able to add to the list. 1. _Ludolf von Suchen ("Ludolphus parochialis ecclesiæ in Suchen rector"), De terra sancta et itinere Jhierosolymitano._--Three undated editions, but in all probability printed before 1480, are mentioned in Brunet's _Manuel du Libraire_. A German translation, entitled, _Von dem gelobten Land vnd Weg gegen Iherusalem_, was published at Augsburg in 1477 in 4to. The author travelled about the year 1340. "His journal," observes Dr. Robinson (_Biblical Researches in Palestine_, iii. p. 11.), "is written with great simplicity, and has something of the marvellous; but is decidedly the best itinerary of the fourteenth century."
