Book Description

Journals, narratives, and descriptions relating to British colonization in the islands of St Christopher, Nevis, Barbados, Tobago and Trinidad, and in Guiana, the voyage of Sir Henry Coltand, and to Admiral de Ruyter's raid in the West Indies, 1664-5. This is a new print-on-demand hardback edition of the volume first published in 1925. Owing to technical constraints it has not been possible to reproduce the following maps at the end of the volume: "Map of the Caribee Islands"; "Map of Cuba, Jamaica, and S. Domingo"; "Map of the Rivers Amazon and Orinoco, Showing the Mythical Lake of Manoa and El Dorado". These maps appeared in the first edition of the work.
