Beautiful original edition in French by the Dutch Count Carel Sirardus Willem van Hogendorp (1788-1856), Resident of Batavia, Buitenzorg, and Crawang from 1818 to 1827. In this book, he gives an account of varying aspects of the island Java and the other Dutch possessions in this region. Politics, culture, vegetation, and wildlife, as well as agriculture, colonial administration, revenues and the Dutch-Japanese trade relations, are subject of the critical observations made by Van Hogendorp. The work, which was also published in a Dutch translation in 1833, is dedicated to the Minister of "Waterstaat" (Minister of Water Management (or Public Works)), P.L.J.S. van Gobbelschroy. It gives a lively picture of the colony just before the introduction of the capitalistic "cultuurstelsel" (cultivation system, a system of forced labour) and the outbreak of the so-called Java War (1824-1830).With a small manuscript annotation on the rector of the first flyleaf ("offert par l'auteur") and the bookplate of H.E.
