British Museum - Sir Francis Drake's Voyage Round the World 1577-1580 - 1927

This offers a fascinating glimpse into historical cartography. This 1927 First Edition features two large facsimile maps: 1. World Map showing Francis Drake's Circumnavigation of the Globe in 1577-1580 This was a groundbreaking journey that not only demonstrated the extent of human seafaring capabilities during the Age of Discovery but also significantly impacted global geopolitics. Drake's voyage, commissioned by Queen Elizabeth I of England, aimed to explore new trade routes, harass Spanish ships and settlements, and expand England's influence around the world. His successful circumnavigation solidified England's naval prowess and challenged Spain's dominance in maritime trade, marking a significant chapter in the history of European expansionism. 2. Vera Totius Expeditionis Nauticae This map depicts the routes taken around the world by Sir Francis Drake between 1577 and 1580 and by Thomas Cavendish between 1586 and 1588. The two-hemisphere old world map is surrounded by ornate artwork and text. It includes two ancillary maps showing landing at California and Java, two ancillary views showing Drake's welcome at Moluccas and Drake's ship cast up on the rocks near the Celebes. Despite the heavy wear on the cover, the interior of this edition is well-preserved, including the maps. Shipped from France.
