From
John Ogilby's 'Africa ' which was based on
the
Dutch publication of two years earlier by Jacob van Meurs of
Olfert Dapper's Naukeurige Beschrijvinghe Der Afrikaensche
.... Using the same copperplate maps and views, this
translation was the best English account of the continent to
that time and was intended to be part of a series of atlases
of all parts of the world, which, in fact, was never
completed. The plates were finely engraved and represent
evocative European perceptions of the regions as known during
the seventeenth century. The following date from
1668-1670.
Ogilby,
a London geographer, historian, and
publisher, was born in Edinburgh in 1600. In addition to being a
bookseller, printer, and translator, he was also a dancing teacher
and theatre owner; he was appointed Royal Cartographer in 1671.
"Africa" was the first colume of Ogilby's planned "English Atlas"
series, and is the most comprehensive English work on that
continent published in the 17th century. It is of particular
interest owing to its numerous plates of natural history subjects
and for the accounts of the natives of southern
Africa
Africa :
Being an Accurate Description of the Regions of Aegypt, Barbary,
Lybia and Billedugerid, the Land of Negroes, Guinee, Aethiopia, and
the Abyssines .with all Adjacent Islands...their Coasts, Harbour,
Creeks, River, Lakes, Cities...Customs, Modes and Manners,
Languages...Plants, Beasts, Birds and Serpents,
