Johan Nieuhof was one of the most celebrated Dutch travel writers of the seventeenth century. His lively, first-hand, and spectacularly illustrated account of his voyages and travels to the East Indies, first published in 1682 and translated into English in 1704, became one of the most influential books about the Malay world before the age of Raffles. This new reprint is a facsimile edition of the 1732 impression, and includes an informative introduction by Dr Anthony Reid.
