This is Part VII of the full work, which is perhaps the most interesting for 17th century Africana collectors:
- I. Johann Christian Hoffmann. Reise nach dem Kaplande, nach Mauritius und nach Java. 1671-1676
- II. Johann Schreyer. Reise nach dem Kaplande und Beschreibung der Hottentotten. 1669-1677
The first of these journeys took place only 17 years after the arrival of Van Riebeeck at the Cape
- this is a near-perfect copy of a 90-year-old book
