A dark, textured book cover with white distressed text reading, “SALGARI’S HISTORIES OF THE CALAMITIES.” An eye symbol with mirrored S shapes appears at the top. Below the title, a skull and crossbones with cryptic symbols in its eyes is flanked by two open palms. The text beneath reads: “An Account of the WARS, PLAGUES, ASSASSINATIONS, DISASTERS, PLOTS, TRAGEDIES & HARDSHIPS that befell the OLDE IMPERIUM, EVENTS both PUBLICK as PRIVATE, ENDING with the VISITATION of the STRANGE BALLOONS.” In the bottom right corner, there’s an artist’s mark: the letters “NO.”
