London: Printed for Jonah Bowyer, 1717. First Edition of the English Translation. The author, a French military engineer, was sent to South America to inspect and construct Spanish fortifications for defence against English and Dutch attacks. He was instructed by the French government to chart the Pacific coast of South America for possible French military use at a later date.
