Stemming from a notable Anglo-Jewish family, Frederick David Mocatta (1828–1905) a financier and philanthropist, was also a patron of learning and himself an author of historical works, the present text being particularly well regarded. His fine library formed the basis of the collections which are now included in the Mocatta Library, located at University College, London. Due to the exquisite nature of this particular copy, it is likely it belonged to the author himself.
