“Historica, Theologica et Moralis Terræ Sanctæ Elucidatio”; auctore Francisco Quaresmio, Ordinis Minorum Theologo, olim Terræ Sanctæ Præside, et Commissario Apostolico, 2 vols, folio (1639). In a printed notice at the end the author states that the work was begun in 1616, completed in 1625, that the printing commenced in 1634, and was completed in 1639. After his manuscript had been finished and censored, the author again returned to reside in the Holy Land, and was there able to compare the descriptions in his book with the actual sites, subjecting the whole to a thorough revision.
