First posthumously published in Dutch at Leiden in 1793, this English edition was translated and prepared by Wilcocke, who was 'acquainted with the family, though not with the person, of the author' (vol. I, p. iv). 'Through this connection and other resources, he was able to correct many mistakes that were due to the negligence of the original editor. Wilcocke also added a large and informative appendix, comprised of regulations and orders in the colonies, tables of imports, lists of ships, stockholdings, an abstract of an herbal by Henry Oldeland, and a biographical sketch of Reinier de Klerk, governor-general for the Dutch East India Company' (Hill). 'This work affords an accurate and valuable account of the Cape in the last quarter of the eighteenth century, with an interesting description of Cape Town and its inhabitants' (Mendelssohn). The attractive maps depict the Ganges, bays near the Cape of Good Hope, and Java. ESTC T100434; Hill 1632; Landwehr 300; Mendelssohn II, p. 426. Language: English.
