| Description | The article brings a selection of several exceptional flood cases captured by printed documents from the 16th-18th centuries. Extant early printed books and information that they contain (verified from other sources where possible)suitably complement and extend the potential of historical hydrology and meteorology for the study and documentation of early floods that occured before the beginning of instrumental observations and measurements. |
