The itinerario of Jeronimo Lobo - n.162

Jerónimo Lobo was the last survivor of the small band of Jesuit Fathers who tried, with a measure of success, to reconcile Ethiopia to the Church of Rome.

His life was long and adventurous. The narrative begins with Lobo's ordination in 1621 and ends seventeen years later.

Chosen to serve in India he reached that country after being involved with a naval fight against the Dutch and English off MoAambique.
