The Travels of Leo of Rozmital Through Germany, Flanders, England, France, Spain, Portugal, and Italy, 1465-1467 by Gabriel Tetzel PDF Summary

Book Description: Baron Leo of Rozmital was born in Bohemia in 1426 and died in 1480. His brother-in-law was George Podiebrad, the Hussite king of Bohemia, whose throne was endangered by his heresies. Leo's journey was perhaps made to obtain the support of European kings for Podiebrad or at any rate to hear their views and persuade them to intercede with the Pope. Rozmital left Prague in 1465 with two chroniclers, Tetzel and Schaseck, who each described the journey. They met the rulers of the principal countries of Europe and observed the customs and ways of life -- both good and bad. At Brussels the party was entertained by Philip the Good. After Bruges, Ghent and Calais, they crossed to England. Their stay includes descriptions of Edward IV and his court and English life generally. They returned to France, which they liked, then on to Spain where they had difficulties. They also went to Portugal and Italy and ultimately returned home via Venice and Austria.
