[Vairasse d'Allais, Denis].
Histoire des Sevarambes, peuples qui habitent une partie du troisiéme continent, communément appellé la Terre Australe. Amsterdam, Estienne Roger, 1702.
Small 8vo. 333, (1); 303, (25) pp. With engraved frontispiece (repeated in volume 2) and 2 title-pages printed in red and black. Contemporary mottled, tanned sheepskin, rebacked with the original backstrip laid down and a new red title-label. "Best" (Howgego) edition of this account of an imaginary voyage based on the story of the VOC ship Vergulde Draeck that was wrecked on the coast of western Australia in 1656. First published anonymously by the French writer Denis Vairasse (1635-1700), simultaneously in French and English, in five parts over the years 1675 to 1679. At this time Europeans still knew almost nothing about Australia, and the utopian wild stories of the book caught the imagination of the public and went through many editions. - "In Vairasse's story, one of the boats sent out to seek help, returns with news of the discovery of a civilized country where its crew were imprisoned and then released by an armed force from Sporunde, a vassal state of the great kingdom called Sevarambia in the interior. The Sporundeans, who speak Dutch and Spanish as a result of prior European encounter, take the crew to their city where they are welcomed in friendship. On the return of the boat, the survivors of the Dragon d'Or are then taken to Sporunde, from where [Captain] Siden and his companions proceed on a journey to Severambia" (Howgego). "With its emphasis on Deism, Reason, and the full dignity of man, the novel rejects most of what France had stood for from the Huguenot Wars to Louis XIV, and announces instead the dawn of 18th century Enlightenment and 19th century Liberalism" (Friederich). - Some pages a bit browned and rebacked; generally in good condition. From the library of the Swedish antiquarian bookdealer Björn Löwendahl (1941-2013). Barbier II, 768. OCLC 22754709. R. Davidson, A book collector's notes, p. 43. Howgego, Invented narratives, V1. Cf. Friederich, pp. 20-22.

[VASON (George)]
An Authentic Narrative of four years' residence at Tongataboo, one of the Friendly Islands, in the South-Sea, By ------ who went thither in the Duff, under Captain Wilson, in 1796. With an Appendix, by an eminent writer.
First edition, 8vo (212 x 125 mm), xv, [1], [17]-234, [2]pp., errata leaf at end, engraved frontispiece and engraved map stained, text age-toned with occasional foxing, cont. half-calf, later cloth reback, corners rubbed. This is an authentic account of the life of the missionary George Vason who was one of the first ten Christian missionaries to arrive in Tonga. He left the missionaries at Tonga and lived among the natives for four years. He began to dress and live as a Tongan, and married one of the native girls. He built up an estate and became a prosperous Tongan gentlemen until the beginning of the civil wars in 1799. He was tattooed, and looked and spoke like a Tongan. He escaped the wars on the ship, Royal Admiral, and returned to Nottingham where he died in 1838. He told his story to James Orange and only two versions have been printed, this one in 1810 and one in 1840. His description of Tonga at the end of the eighteenth century is important in that it precedes William Mariner's longer account published in 1817, but the two accounts give uniquely objective reports of Tonga before and during the civil war. Hill, Pacific Voyages, p.306; Ferguson, 507b; Howgego, D37 and E9.
