'The book is of greatest importance to an Australian collection, as it contains one of the earliest English accounts of Abel Janszoon Tasman's famous voyage of 1642 from Batavia, in which he discovered Tasmania and New Zealand and visited Tonga and Fiji' (Hill). An English naval commander, (Rear-Admiral Sir) John Narborough (c.16401688) served with distinction in the Anglo-Dutch Wars and against the Barbary Coast pirates. After peace was declared with the Dutch, Narborough was given the command of an expedition to the South Seas departing England on 26 September 1669, before sailing through the Straits of Magellan and into the Pacific in October of the following year. His charts of the Straits of Magellan were a great improvement on those of previous navigators and were used by Bulkeley and Cummins following the wreck of the Wager. Bookplate of Godfrey Bosville.

Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. FIRST EDITION, 18 engraved plates, 3 large folding maps, contemporary panelled calf, 8vo, London, 1694 An important collection of voyages 'evidently designed to illustrate current knowledge of the two outstanding geographical mysteries, the northern sea passage to East Asia and the e…xistence of the supposed Southern Continent. Publication was closely linked to the Royal Society, a keen exponent of the important contribution to science that mariners could make by keeping detailed journals of their voyages. A fellow of the Society, Sir Tanceed Robinson, is usually credited as editor and the book is dedicated by its publishers, the Royal Society's official printers to Samuel Pepys, who, in addition to his famous place in naval affairs, was a Fellow and President of the Society. It was widely read, sometimes in dire circumstances, such as by the survivors of the Wager (one of Anson's support ships) who poured over a copy for navigational information when wrecked off the bleak coast of Patagonia. The narratives of the two English voyages- Narborough and Wood's - are printed here for the first time. Narborough's expedition (1669-71) was the first English venture to the Pacific since that of Hawkins in 1593-94 and was the first such expedition to be officially sanctioned by the Admiralty. Instructed to make discoveries and to explore opportunities to breach the Spanish commercial monopoly over South America, Narborough was forced by increasing hostility to turn back, having reached Valdivia in Chili. His principal achievements were some careful observations of Patagonia and an excellent chart of the Straits of Magellan that remained standard for many years. Wood's voyage was an attempt to find a north-east passage to Japan but was wrecked off Nova Zembla in 1676. The book's introduction concludes against the existence of such a passage and agrees with Wood that Spitzbergen and Novaya Zemlya formed part of a single landmass. Martens's description of his voyage to Spitzbergen in 1671, which includes valuable information on whaling in northern waters. The interest in Tasman's great voyage to the south in 1642, when he discovered Van Diemen's Land (Tasmania) and New Zealand, presages the series of English attempts to locate the Southern Continent in the 18th century. The editor of the present volume follows the contemporary belief that such a continent enclosed the southern extremities of the Indian and Pacific oceans, and he suggests that the Dutch may have discovered more than they had published. Cox II, 262; Hill 1475.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Originally published in 1694, this record of recent voyages made by Sir John Narborough, Abel Tasman, John Wood and Friderich Martens includes Tasman's account of discovering Tasmania and New Zealand in 1642. Equally engaging, Narborough's journal records his voyage to the Straits of Magella…n and his interest in the lands and peoples he encountered from 1669 to 1671. Here also are Wood's thoughts on his 1676 attempt to find a north-east passage to the East Indies, along with Martens' observations on Spitsbergen and whaling in northern waters in 1671. The extracts given here, translated where necessary, offer valuable insights into seventeenth-century navigation and exploration. A selection of illustrations, ranging from maps to depictions of exotic flora and fauna, accompany the text. A key reference for later navigators and for those interested in the history of maritime exploration, the book was also one of the oldest works in Darwin's library aboard the Beagle. This 1694 account of voyages made by Sir John Narborough, Abel Tasman, John Wood and Friderich Martens includes Tasman's discovery of New Zealand and Tasmania in 1642. A key reference for later navigators, it was notably one of the oldest books in Darwin's library aboard the Beagle. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
