Extracted from Commelin's collection of voyages. - A group of Amsterdam

merchants was responsible for the venture of the first Dutch voyage to the East in

1595. The four small ships sailed via the Cape of Good Hope to Bantam, a large

trading centre on the west coast of Java. Three of the four ships finally returned to

Amsterdam. 'Despite the loss of many men and one of the ships, troubles with both

Javans and Portuguese, and profits barely large enough to cover expenses, the return

of De Houtman's fleet set of a flurry of activity among Dutch entrepreneurs. In 1598,

the year after its return, no fewer than twenty-five ships were sent out by merchants

of the provinces of Holland and Zeeland alone' (Lach & Van Kley, Asia in the

making, III,1, p.439). This voyage provided European readers with the most detailed

description of Java to date and with the first continuous description of Bali in any

language. At the Cape they landed and encountered a party of Hottentots. - (Part of

plate 17 (market scene) missing; some plates cut slightly short). - Rare early edition

First edition. - Account of the military expedition by general

Van Swieten against the queen of Bone (South Sulawesi)

Basse Kadjoeara in 1859 and 1860. 'Hij was een moedig

militair die zich op expedities en als civiel gezaghebber

onderscheidde. Hij kreeg dan ook de Militaire Willemsorde en

nog een paar eretekenen. Ondanks zijn verbondenheid met het

leger is zijn kijk op het militaire leven genuanceerder en

onafhankelijker dan die van Van Rees en er waren tijden dat

hij op het punt stond 'uit te treden', bekent deze militair die

eigenlijk pastoor had willen worden' (R. Nieuwenhuys, Oost-

Indische spiegel, p.197). Including many ethnographical data on the local population.

First edition. - South Celebes (Sulawesi) lay on the route that the Dutch took from

Batavia to Amboyna. The sultan of Makassar (now Ujung Pandang), the leading

representative of Islam in the region, was especially hostile to the Dutch missionary

drive. He was also determined to protect Makassar's position as an international

harbour for the spice trade, open to all nations. With the support of the English,

Danes and Portuguese, he had long resisted the efforts of the Dutch East India

Company (VOC) to monopolize the spice trade. Alarmed by this development,

Batavia in 1666 sent an expedition against Makassar led by Cornelis Speelman

(1628-1684). He forced the sultan in 1669 to conclude a treaty which the Dutch,

under Dutch supremacy with the help of the Bugis people who were being oppressed

by the Macassarese . - Very rare.

supremacy in the East Indies, which was to

continue until World War II. 'Matelief's fleet of

eleven ships left Texel on May 12, 1605. From

April 30 until August 24, 1606, he besieged

Malacca in league with the sultan of Johore. He

won two impressive naval victories over the

Portuguese during this time. After he divided his

fleet on January 6, 1607, Matelief visited Bantam,

Jakatra, Amboina, and Ternate, where he built a

fort, and the China coast, where he attempted to negotiate a trade agreement. His

journal is well written and exceedingly rich in details. There seems no end to the

information about receptions, negotiations with princes and officials, banquets and

the food served at rgem, conversations, exchanges of letters, and treaties, all laced

with Matelief's salty assessment of the events or the character of the dignitaries he

met. Containing als several interesting inserts: a description of Malacca, Batu,

Amboina, and a discourse on the state of Dutch commerce in the Indies. It is one of

the earliest serious Dutch attemps at direct trade with China (Lach & Van Kley, III,

p.468). One of the ships was the Erasmus, later renamed De Liefde, the first Dutch

vessel to come to Japan. - (Missing pl. 2,5,7,11).

Extracted from Commelin's collection of voyages. - The first successful Dutch

trading voyage to the East Indies. The fleet sent out from Amsterdam by the

successor of the company that financed De Houtman's venture, now called the Old

East India Company, was a smashing success. Eight ships commanded by Jacob van

Neck and Wybrand van Warwijck left Texel on May 1, 1598. Fifteen month later, on

July 17, Van Neck returned from Bantam with four of his ships fully laden with

pepper. The rest of the fleet, under Van Warwijck and Jacob van Heemskerck, made

other stops on Java and then went to Banda, Amboina, and the Moluccas; here they

established the three factories which became the foundation for later Dutch controle

of the Moluccan spice trade. Van Heemskerck arrived in Amsterdam with two ships

on May 19, 1600; Van Warwijck arrived with the remaining two ships at the end of

August, 1600. The major contributions made by this account were full descriptions

of Banda, Amboina, and the Moluccas. Appended is a Malay-Javanese-Dutch word

list (Lach & Van Kley, Asia in the making of Europe III,1, p.439-440).

Van de Velde (1818-1898) was trained as a naval officer at the Koninklijk Instituut

voor de Marine, where he received drawing lessons from Petrus Johannes Schotel

(1808-1865), one of the best known Dutch naval artists of the 19th century. The

drawings for this publication were made by Van de Velde during the period when he

was a midshipsman aboard the naval corvet Triton (captain-lieutenant A.C. Edeling)

between April 1838 and October 1839, and between the later date and September

1841, when he was working at Batavia for the Commission for the improvement of

maps and charts of Indonesia. The drawings were transferred on stone by Paulus

Lauters, one of the most renowned of Belgian lithographers. They represent views in

Java (including several of Batavia), Timor, the Moluccas, Celebes, Borneo and

Sumatra. - (Some light staining as usual). - A fine copy.

- Pieter Willemszoon Verhoeff commanded one

of the last voyages of the first phase of Dutch

occupation in the East Indies. His instructions, in

addition to destroying as much Iberian shipping as

possible, were to drive the Spanish and

Portuguese out of the Moluccas (Howgego p. 1065-1066). This account of Verhoeff's

voyages is a composite piece. It starts with the journal by the chief merchant Johan

de Moelre and continued, after he was killed, by the fleet's treasurer Jacques Le

Febure. Followed by extracts from the journal of Reynier Dirckszoon, the pilot

aboard one of the ships which sailed to Japan, and the journal of Jacob Specx and

Pieter Segerszoon also on Japan. This piece is followed by a report by Samuel

Bloemaert about trade and negotiations on Borneo and Appolonius Schotte's

accounts of the Moluccas and Gillis Seys report of 1627 on Amboina. These

materials constitute a rich source of information about the expansion of Dutch power

in the Moluccas, the negotiations with the inlanders, the war with the Spaniards, the

details of trade, and the daily life of the Dutch stationed there. This account of

Verhoeff's voyage was never separately reprinted during the 17th century. (Lach &
