Rare third Vlasblom edition of Schouten's diary. All editions of great rarity. ""The map of the South Sea is evidently not included in the plate numbers on page 71 and is probably lacking in some copies. There is no doubt however of its belonging to the book"" (Cf. Sabin). This account of Schouten's voyage was first printed in Dutch in 1617. In 1615, Willem Schouten and Jacob Le Maire left the port of Texel in the Netherlands as part of an expedition to find a new sea route to the Pacific and the Moluccan archipelago in order to circumvent the trade restrictions imposed by the Dutch East India Company (VOC). - With the often missing sea chart, the hemisphere chart, depiction of sea battles and local population and Cocos Island. Title page with small restored (repaired through small drawing) defect, only rarely somewhat spotted, nice copy." "Sabin 77961. - Seltene dritte Vlasblom Ausgabe des Tagebuch von Schouten. Alle Editionen von großer Seltenheit. ""The map of the South Sea is evidently not included in the plate numbers on page 71 and is probably lacking in some copies. There is no doubt however of its belonging to the book"" (Vgl. Sabin). Dieser Bericht über Schoutens Reise wurde erstmals 1617 auf Niederländisch gedruckt. Im Jahr 1615 verließen Willem Schouten und Jacob Le Maire den Hafen von Texel in den Niederlanden im Rahmen einer Expedition, deren Ziel es war, einen neuen Seeweg zum Pazifik und zum Molukken-Archipel zu finden, um die von der Niederländischen Ostindien-Kompanie (VOC) auferlegten Handelsbeschränkungen zu umgehen. - Mit der oft fehlenden Seekarte, der Hemisphärentafel, Darstellung von Seegefechten und lokaler Bevölkerung und der Cocos Insel. Titelseite mit kleiner restaurierter (durch Zeichnung) Fehlstelle, nur selten etwas fleckig, schönes Exemplar."
