      Note/s:
      • 'The uncommon Utrecht edition, published by Lucas de Vries, notable for the dramatic new image of three views of the wreck of the vessel on the title page, an image not used by any of the other publishers... Also the second edition to print a full version of the text by adding the very significant alternative eye-witness account of the events in the form of the letter by the minister Gijsbert Bastiaenz one of the survivors of the wreck...

        'It describes Pelsaert's boat voyage along the West Australian coast to seek help at Batavia, the first extensive discovery of the Australian continent. .. The images that illustrate the publication... are the earliest printed representations of any Australian scenes.' -- Hordern House.
