‎Olfert Dapper aurait consulté plus d'une centaine de documents pour rédiger son livre. L'influence de deux publications contemporaines y est palpable : Le Monde ou la Description générale de ses quatre parties de Davity, auquel il fait référence à plusieurs reprises, et l'Atlas Major de Blaeu. Source d'informations, la Description de Dapper comprend, pour la plupart des régions d'Afrique qu'elle décrit, des informations topographiques, sur sa faune, sa flore, ses habitants, leurs particularités physiques, les rites conjugaux, funéraires, l'agriculture et l'artisanat, leurs modes de gouvernement et enfin les religions. Loin d’être un simple compilateur, Dapper s'est efforcé de comprendre les sociétés africaines ..., « Dapper mérite que l'on salue en lui un grand pionnier dans le domaine des études africaines, et peut-être même le premier africaniste de tous les temps". Jones, "Olfert Dapper et sa Description de l'Afrique", in Objets interdits. Paris The most important work of synthesis devoted to Africa in the second half of the 17th century. Dutch physician and geographer Olfert Dapper (1635-1689) is honest enough to draw the reader's attention (p. 219) to the difficulty of dealing in general with the soil, manners and customs of the African continent "... because they are composed of too many nations ". His work is indeed worth by the multiplicity and the exactitude of the details and by the general views. The entire continent is covered - the Islamic north, from Morocco to Egypt, Abyssinia, central and southern Africa, Madagascar, Malta, the Canary Islands and other islands along the African coast. No other work of his time could compare with it and it will remain among the sources that later geographers will use most often. M1-Et0‎

‎On the Various Contrivances by Which British and Foreign Orchids are Fertilised by Insects and On the Good Effects of Intercrossing‎

‎London: John Murray from 1862 1899. Second Edition. Three-Quarter Calf. Fine. 8vo: vi3651pp with one folding plate and 33 woodcuts in text. Rebound without the advertisements in three-quarter chocolate-brown calf over marbled boards flat spine in five compartments divided by double gilt fillets compartments two and four lettered in gilt end papers renewed lacking publisher's advertisements at rear. A Fine copy virtually pristine fresh bright and unmarked. Freeman 800. Bibliotheca Bibliographici 1765. Followling on the heels of publication of On the Origin of Species this was Darwin's first detailed demonstration of the power of natural selection explaining how complex ecological relationships resulted in the coevolution of orchids and insects. According to Asa Gray the most important American botanist of the 19th century "If the Orchid-book with a few trifling omissions had appeared before the 'Origin' the author would have been canonised rather than anathematised by the natural theologians" and he notes that a review in the Literary Churchman found only one fault "that Mr. Darwin's expression of admiration at the contrivances in orchids is too indirect a way of saying 'O Lord how manifold are Thy works.'" Darwin himself wrote to John Murray on September 24th 1861 "I think this little volume will do good to the "Origin" as it will show that I have worked hard at details." Orchids "was concerned with working out in detail the relationships between sexual structures of orchids and the insects which fertilise them their evolution being attributed to natural selection. It is therefore the first of the volumes of supporting evidence. It was much praised by botanists but sold only about 6000 copies before the turn of the century. . . . I have not seen any figure for the number of copies printed for the first edition although it cannot have been more than 2000 and was probably less." Freeman N. B.
