Description
Rare separately issued map, unfortunately only the upper part of the map. It is a variant of this important colonial map. The upper sheet showing the upper course of the St. Lawrence River. With 3 large insets: 1) A Chart of the Mouth of Hudson's River from Sandy Hook to New York. This is in effect a chart of New York Harbor, with depth soundings, shoals, and other marine information laid down. 2) A Plan of Amboy. The city of Perth Amboy, the old capital of New Jersey, and the most important port in that province. 3) A Plan of the City of New York. Twenty five important sites are identified by key.The map was prepared by Major Samuel Holland, Surveyor General for the Northern District of North America and issued as early as 1768. Holland conceived of a general survey of North America east of the Mississippi to be based upon geodetic principles, on a scale of one inch to one mile. Work was interrupted in 1775 by the outbreak of the American Revolution. There are six known states of the map, including five published in London states. State three adds the inset plans. State four had numerous alterations, particularly in upstate New York, where numerous new land grants were added. These changes were based on original materials provided by Thomas Pownall, who had previously served as governor of both New York and Massachusetts, and was extremely interested in colonial topography.
This very rare German edition is a faithful re-engraving of the fifth and most complete of the London states. The use of English is preserved for the title, all place names, notations, and legends.

[Another Dutch fleet reaches Lima].
In 1624 a heavily armed Dutch fleet sailed from the Juan Fernandez Islands to Lima. The leader of the fleet, Jacob l’Hermite, was in such poor health that he had to hand over command to Admiral Jacobson. The fleet anchored outside the harbour near the island of San Lorenzo (‘I. de Lima’). The port was full of Spanish ships and was too well protected for a direct confrontation so, on the night of 11th May, the Dutch carried out a daring and devious plan. In 1631 Johann Ludwig Gottfried, inh...

[How natives of Paria cope with illness] / Vespucci reaches Lake Maracaibo]..
Two engravings. [421b] When the natives of those parts, they were bathed in a cold stream, then chased round a blazing fire until they had dried out. Then they were put to bed and great care was taken to ensure their loins were dry. Vomiting was overcome by fasting for three or four days and paying careful attention to diet., which rarely included meat, except for human flesh, of which they were inordinately fond. In fact they would even fatten their enemy captives before eating them and seemed ...

Britannia Ducatus. Duché de Bretaigne.
Map of Bretagne in France. From early on Willem Jansz. Blaeu aimed of publishing an atlas to compete with the Hondius-Jansson Atlas. By 1630, he had published at least 17 folio size maps. Blaeu was able to realize his plan soon after he had acquired the copper plates of the atlas maps by Jodocus Hondius. The "Appendix followed in 1630.In 1635 he finally realized a "international edition" of a world atlas, the "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum".

Piano di Nizza.
Rare 1797 manuscript map of Nice, with the French navy attacking from the sea. Unknown author, Italian, but map attributed to an original, probably broadsheet map by Mollieras (?). Good plan of the layout of Nice and the port and coast as was in 1797. Ships are perhaps a trifle naive. This attack is not covered by any other antique maps or prints.The sheet is watermarked with the initials JH & Z, for Jan Honig and Zoonen, a firm of papermakers operating in Zaandijk, north of Amsterdam operating ...
