Edition Notes
Virgules replaced by commas in title page transcription.
Constitutes the Appendix to part 1 of Theodor de Bry's Small voyages, printed in 13 parts and an Appendix in Frankfurt am Main and Oppenheim from 1597 to 1633.
This work has been identified as the sole German edition of the Appendix of the Small voyages by Church.
The Appendix was first published as a continuation of the second edition of part I. of the Small voyages. It is customary, however, to bind it with the first edition. It contains an account of the five voyages to western Africa made in the years 1611-1621 by Samuel Bruno, or Braun, a physician of Basle. Cf. Church.
