Zustand: Very good plus. Mixed first and second issue. First edition of this iconic account of Virginia, the Roanoke colony, and its environs, including the landmark map of Virginia and all the famed engravings of Native American life in the 1580s. The first of De Bry's series of great and small voyages, this book is particularly important for its content on the lives of the Native American populations of Virginia and North Carolina in the late 16th century as recorded by a key member of an early expedition. Thomas Hariot, an English polymath fluent in Carolina Algonquin, penned the text on a voyage to Roanoke Island in 1585-6, including direct observations of the Indigenous populations' living arrangements, farming, fishing, and traditional practices. The text is accompanied by illustrations originally made by John White, a member of the same expedition and later famous for his discovery that the colony of Roanoke had vanished ? the very colony described in detail here by Hariot. Copies of De Bry's voyages are known for causing "the greatest confusion of bibliographers" and "the despair of collectors" (Church, vol 1, 317) owing to their typically mixed and/or incomplete states. The first and second issues of part one of the voyages were issued in the same year and are largely uniform with only minor differences in the position of the text. As with the vast majority of known copies, the present copy contains plates from both issues, with six plates from the first issue and six from the second (where there are issue points to distinguish them; the remaining 19 plates are identical between issues), as well as a mix of the first two text issues and the map in its second state (as usual) as identified by Burden. Though lacking some leaves, this copy retains its complete set of the Native American plates, arguably the most important and informative part of the entire De Bry series, and the stellar map of Virginia. A foundational book for collectors of Americana. 14'' x 9.5''. Modern polished brown goat boards tooled in blind and gilt, light brown goatskin spine label. Red-stained edges. Endpapers renewed. Illustrated with engraved title page and 25 (of 28) engraved plates (two folding), and double-page map. 34, [64], [22] pages, most printed one side only; lacking leaves d6 (Adam & Eve plate), D6 (blank), E2 (Picts plate I), E6 (Picts plate III), and F6 (colophon). Leaves variously expertly repaired to margins, with occasional faint soil or dampstaining. Binding only a bit of faint scuffing, else solid and clean.

Unbound. Zustand: Very Good. Portfolio. Color facsimiles of 36 historical maps. Each map measures approximately 12" x 9", printed on 17" x 11½" paper with descriptive text in the left margin. Housed with a title page sheet and unprinted top sheet in a four-fold chemise. Unprinted topsheet sunned at the edges, first two leaves with some very light toning and a couple of tiny corner creases; the maps are otherwise bright and fine. The chemise is good only with toning, wear, and soil, and a 1" creased tear on the cover panel. A nice production, and the chemise has done its job, keeping the maps bright and fresh.

RARE STATE. ----Americae pars, Nunc Virginia dicta primum ab Anglis inventa sumtibus Dn Walteri Raleigh Equestris ordinis Viri Anno Dni. M.D LXXXV. . ----TITLE TRANSLATION: Part of America, now called Virginia, first discovered by the English, taken up by Sir Walter Raleigh, Knight, in 1585 A.D. ----PUBLICATION DETAILS: Published in Theodore de Bry, Wunderbarliche, doch warhafnewlichftige Erklärung, von der Gelegenheit vnd Sitten der Wilden in Virginia. (Frankfurt, 1590). A t the left border: Autore Ioanne With Sculptore Theodoro de Bry, Qui et excud. This acknowledges John White as the engraver, but a few plates were done in-house, from Cape Fear to the Chesapeake Bay. ----BACKGROUND: The story in this book containing g this map takes place beginning in 1585 on Roanoke Island in what is now Dade County, North Carolina. Queen Elizabeth (the First) had granted Sir Walter Raleigh a charter to colonize the part of America north of the Spanish claim for Florida. This new land was named Virginia in honor of the virgin queen. At the time of this book, Virginia covered the area from Maryland to the border of Florida. Raleigh appointed Ralph Lane as governor. Thomas Hariot was the documentarian and John White the surveyor (and cartographer). De Bry s book is based primarily on their work. Americæ pars, nunc Virginia covers the coast from Cape Fear to the Chesapeake Bay. It is the first separate map of Virginia and the first printed record of Raleigh s attempt to establish a colony in North America. ----Burden states: The map concerned depicts the area from Chesapeake Bay to Cape Lookout. It exhibits greater knowledge than on any of the surviving manuscripts. Possibly this is from knowledge gained during White's brief visit in 1587 and signifies some lost manuscripts. Here we find the first printed use of the name Chesapeake, Chesepiooc Sinus, and the second of Roanoke (the first being Mazza). It depicts the positions of the Indian villages in the area and is adorned with the Royal Arms of England. The Latter's ships are shown at sea with Indian canoes traversing the inland waters. The two native scenes shown are taken from illustrations in the book ----IDENTIFICATION OF THE MAP: The double-page map of Virginia (Plate I in the book) has Latin text in the two cartouches and is the same for the four languages and all editions of de Bry s book which his sometimes identified as Part I, Grands Voyages (Virginia).I). There is one known exception to the design. In his carto-bibliography #76, Burden identifies three states , all pertaining to the beginning C in the title of the Indian village Chesepiooc (Chesapeake), which is located on a river left of the Chesapeake Bay. However, Burden indicates those three states bear no relation to the editions of the book. So, it is impossible to attribute the map to a particular edition of de Bry once it is removed from the book, or if it had been replaced during restoration of the 434 year-old book. Those three states are: ----State 1. Ehesepiooc. ----State 2. The letter C engraved over the E ; both still visible. ----State 3. The error hammered out, burnished, and replaced by C . ----RARE THIRD STATE: This map has the correct engraved C , which is superimposed over less-intense images of the middle bar and the upper and lower extensions to the left of the original letter E . State 2 has a very dark letter C superimposed over the very dark letter E . The C over E were not completely hammered out and burnished before the new letter C was added. State 3 is on another map of ours and both maps were compared to a State 2 to confirm the difference. The buyer will be provided the background material.-----BIBLIOGRAPHY: ----Burden, Philip D.
