Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1877 edition. Excerpt: ... PART II. WHEREIN ARE CONTAINED THE DEALINGS OF THE GREAT AFONSO DALBOQUERQUE WITH THE VICEROY: AND WHAT HE DID AFTER BEING INVESTED WITH THE GOVERNMENT OF INDIA, UNTIL THE FIRST TAKING OF GOA. CHAPTER I. How he arrived at Cananor at the beginning of December, in the year fifteen hundred and eight: and required the Viceroy to deliver up to him the government of India, as the king D. Manuel ordered in his instructions, and what took place thereupon. The great Afonso Dalboquerque, on his arrival at Cananor, as I have mentioned, found the Viceroy there making his fleet ready to go and seek the Rumes, who were at Diu; and as the Viceroy had already learned by Fernao Soares and Ruy da Cunha, captains in the fleet of Jorge de Aguiar (who had arrived but a few days before), that the King D. Manuel had ordered him to return that year to Portugal, leaving Afonso Dalboquerque as Governor of India, he was not much pleased with his arrival, nor was the other, either, pleased at seeing how good a treatment the captains who had deserted him at Ormuz had experienced at the hands of the Viceroy; and thenceforward great dissensions began to grow up between them. After the lapse of some days, Afonso Dalboquerque went to see the Viceroy, and told him, in the presence of Fernao Soarez and Ruy da Cunha, that since the King D. Manuel had ordered him to proceed to Portugal, and all the letters B and official documents came directed to himself, as Governor of India, he desired that he would hand the office over to him, according to the King's instructions, for they were already at the beginning of December, which was the proper time to start, and he had the ship Betlem, wherein he could make the voyage with great comfort, and six other ships to convoy her.

Book Description
The Javanese nobleman Radèn Mas Arya Candranegara V (1837–85), alias Purwalelana, journeyed across his homeland during the rapidly changing times of the nineteenth century. He travelled around 5,000 kilometres by horse and carriage between 1860 and 1875. His eye-witness account, The Travels of Purwalelana, gives an inside view of Java, at the time part of the Dutch East Indies. Candranegara explains habits and traditions of both the Javanese and the Dutch, he describes the architecture of cities and temples and he marvels about the beautiful tropical landscape as well as about the latest technological inventions such as steam trains, horse-drawn trams and gas lanterns. This Hakluyt publication, illustrated with contemporaneous images, presents the rare perspective of an Indonesian traveller living in colonial times. The author grew up as a member of a Javanese noble family in the hybrid world of the colonial upper class. He received a western-style education, but also learnt how to follow Javanese traditions and to be a good Muslim. In 1858 he was appointed to the high rank of Regent of Kudus by the colonial government. Candranegara wrote his book under the pseudonym Purwalelana, probably because he considered publishing to be an adventurous undertaking and possibly also because it gave him freedom to arrange the events in his own way. The Travels represents the first Javanese travelogue ever written and, as such, it broke with existing traditions. Candranegara used prose instead of poetry, wrote from a first-person perspective rather than a third-person, and he described present society rather than dwelling upon the common literary theme of kings in battle. The result is a lively story in which the armchair traveller shares his experiences on the road. It provides its readers with a range of people and topics pivotal to developments in nineteenth century Java, a treasure trove for historians and cultural anthropologists alike. The volume includes 24 colour illustrations.

Book Description
The Chronicle of Discovery and Conquest of Guinea in two volumes is a historical source which is considered the main authority for the early Portuguese voyages of discovery down the African coast and in the ocean, more especially for those undertaken under the auspices of Prince Henry the Navigator. The work is written by Portuguese chronicler Zurara and is serves as the principal historical source for modern conception of Prince Henry the Navigator and the Henrican age of Portuguese discoveries (although Zurara only covers part of it, the period 1434-1448). Zurara's chronicle is openly hagiographic of the prince and reliant on his recollections. It contains some account of the life work of that prince, and has a biographical as a geographical interest.
