First edition of this rare legal treatise for the Viceroyalty of Peru and the 
Spanish colonies. Each part with its own title page, the first dated 1620, 
the second 1630, and the third not dated. The first two were previously 
published. The third is new, here published after the author’s death, compiled by his 
son, Joseph Carrasco del Saz. See Palau #45126, #45122, and #45124. It is 
obvious from reading Palau’s notes that copies of this 1648 collection have been 
broken apart. Medina, BIBLIOTECA HISPANO-AMERICANO #1116. Not in the BL 17th c. 
Spanish STC. OCLC records only 1 copy.
