Descripción

8vo; xvi, 395, frontis, 12 illus, folding map, bibliog. original cloth, giltvignette, dj, fine. A picture of this book is available upon request by email. Valentijn's Oud en Nieuw Oost-Indien (Old and New East Indies) is a primary source but has never been republished in full in a critical edition or made available in English translation. This book deals with Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) with substantial sections on geography, society, topography, natural history, an account of the Dutch conquest of the island, etc. One of the most informative writings on Ceylon in English for the first time.
