176; [2], 117pp, [1]. Contemporary gilt-tooled tan half-calf, marbled boards. Tear to N1, Vol I, without loss. A late eighteenth-century abridgement of the voyages of Captain William Dampier (1651-1715), including his first circumnavigation, engagements with the buccaneers Bartholomew Sharp and Edmund Cooke - which included a land crossing of the Isthmus of Darien - and the raiding parties led by John Cooke and Edward Davies, and his own command of HMS Roebuck, which took him to the 'Shark Bay' off the Western Australian mainland by the summer of 1699, where he produced the first detailed records of the flora and fauna of that area. Whist the details of this abridged version are clearly extracted from his own more comprehensive accounts, first published in four volumes between 1692 and 1709, the text itself is a poorly rewritten version of the 1776 abridgement (ESTC T113018), which made efforts to put Dampier's various voyages in chronological order. Given the lack of a publisher's imprint on this 1790 edition, this cataloguer suggests it was likely itself - rather fittingly - a piracy. Rare; ESTC locates just two copies worldwide (BL and John Carter Brown); there is also a copy at the NLA. ESTC N65310. Size: 12mo in 4s.
