Extracts taken from Tasman's own journal describe this expedition.The remaining journey's are narrated in first person from unidentified journals, with the introduction remarking on 'the advantages of keeping judicious journals in voyages and itineraries' due to the 'improvement of Geography, Hydrography, Astronomy, Natural and Moral History', which these accounts can afford later readers.With nineteen beautifully illustrated plates, four of which are folding. The three folding maps are absent, although the torn remains of two of them are present. With an advertisement leaf present to the rear.With the collation: [2], A8, b8, B-N8, B-P8, [1].

Tasman was also the first European to reach Tasmania and New Zealand. In addition there is a detailed description of Narbrough's passage in the Batchelour through the Straits of Magellan into the South Pacific and on to Chile. He successfully proved that trade with South America could be profitable without Spanish oversight, which influenced Britain's foreign policy for the next half century. This edition is more desirable with the additional chart of the western and southern oceans, not present in the first edition, and added text relating to whaling off Greenland.

In den WarenkorbFirst edition. Title-page in black & red. 2 engraved folding maps, folding table, 19 engraved plates (7 folding). 8vo. Contemporary panelled calf, rebacked with red morocco label to spine. Housed in a quarter morocco slipcase and chemise, gilt. xxix, [7], 196, 207, [1]pp. London, Sam Smith & Benj. Watford Printers to the Royal S…ociety, Edited by Sir Tancred Robinson, and dedicated to Samuel Pepys, this compilation of four voyages is known chiefly for its inclusion of John Narborough's account of his voyage through the Straits of Magellan into the Pacific. Robinson's introduction seeks to place his volume in the context of the likes of Hakluyt and Ramusio and includes a brief history of previous explorers such as Magellan, Drake, Quiros, Schouten, Hawkins, Barentz, Sharp et al. Hill states that this work is of "particular interest because of its description of Narborough's passage in the Batchelour through the Straits of Magellen and into the South Pacific to Chile, which was much read by later navigators. Narbrough sailed in 1669 with a commission to explore the west coast of the Americas and to look for the western opening of the North-west passage. He also tried to trade in Chile but failed in this endeavour and turned back at Valdivia. His charts of the Strait of Magellan were superior to older ones." Narborough's account is 129pp. The work is of added interest as it includes one of the earliest accounts in English of Abel Tasman's 1642 voyage upon which he discovered both Tasmania and New Zealand. He also made stops at Tonga and Fiji. There are two further accounts. The first is a search for the north-east passage by John Wood, who sought a passage to Asia in 1676. He sailed on the Speedwell and was accompanied by William Flawes on the Properous. Their passage was prevented by pack ice at 75'59N. They reached the west coast of Nova Zembla where the Speedwell was wrecked. The crew survived the nine-day wait for the Prosperous and were rescued and returned to England. The second is a lengthy account of the voyage by Frederick Martens to Spitzbergen and Greenland undertaken in 1671. Alden & Landis 694/155; Hill, 1475; Howgego I, N3, W54; Sabin, 72185; Wing N-154.
