Lot 32b
This is an attractive map of the voyage of Captain Cook in the Pacific Ocean near the islands of New Caledonia and Vanuatu. Captain Cook discovered the islands on his second voyage, and they included New Caledonia and several islands in the Vanuatu archipelago. Cook called Vanuatu the New Hebrides, the name that was used for the islands until the Republic of Vanuatu was established in 1980. Cook’s route through Vanuatu and around New Caledonia is traced here and there are even references to specific dates where he and his crew landed. Both island groups had been completely unknown to Europeans before Cook’s arrival in 1774. The map was created by James Cook and engraved by Robert Menard for the French edition of Cook’s voyages and published in 1778. The Library of Congress only has five records of the map in collections around the world. 19 1/2 x 15 1/2 in.
Lot 32d
1600’s Map of Dutch Fleet Invading England at Medway. This map features the Dutch fleet preparing to invade England during the Second Anglo-Dutch War. Called the Raid on the Medway, the attack was launched in 1667, and the successful attack by the Dutch was one of the worst defeats in British naval history; it ended in a favorable peace for the Dutch. You can see England and English towns named at the top of the map, and the large Dutch fleet seems to be like an armada ready to strike. The Raid on the Medway was a serious blow to the reputation of the English crown. King Charles felt personally offended by the fact the Dutch had attacked while he laid up his fleet and peace negotiations were in progress, but history says he conveniently forgot he didn’t negotiate in good faith. 15 x 19 in.
Lot 32e
This early map of the British Isles was probably engraved in the mid 1500’s. It is a black and white engraving that features Scotland, England, and Ireland, and all the place names on the map are in Latin (Scotia for Scotland, Anglia for England, and Hibernia for Ireland). We believe it predates Mercator maps and Hondius maps. Mercator (1512 - 1594) was a leading cartographer from the Netherlands, and Hondius, also known by his Dutch name Joost de Hondt (1563 - 1612) was also a leading cartographer from the Netherlands. The size is 10 1/2 x 7 in. Please note that all sales are final. No refunds will be given under any circumstances.
