The present volume is especially devoted to the coming of age and tournament activity in Constantinople of the main protagonist, prince Primaleon, as well as to Prince Edward of England's adventures throughout European lands, and to their final encounter. These twenty-four chapters follow the previous thirty-two in Vernassal's edition, published by Munday in 1589 and already edited by Leticia ?lvarez-Recio (\u003cem\u003eThe Honourable, Pleasant and rare Conceited Historie of Palmendos, \u003c\/em\u003e 2022).
