Orden de las oraciones cotidianas. London: William Osborn, 5481 [1720-21]. This translation of the prayer-book into Spanish was popular among Sephardi Jews, many of whom had returned to Judaism after growing up as Crypto-Jews in the Spanish territories. What makes this siddur special is that it is the first Jewish prayer-book printed in England. It was published in London at the expense of Joseph Messias.
