Sur une période de onze années, Mocquet fint six voyages ;le premier sur la côte occidentale de l'Afrique en 1602 ; le deuxième, au Cap-Verd, au Brésil sur l'Amazone et en Guyane (janvier-août 1604) ; le troisième au Portugal et au Maroc (avril 1605 - mars 1606) ; le quatrième au Mozambique et jusqu'à Goa (1610) ; enfin, le cinquième en Syrie et Palestine (septembre 1611 - juillet 1612), et le dernier en Espagne, non sans ramener chaque fois au roi de nombreuses curiosités de tous les genres, dont l'auteur porte témoignage. Douée d'une profonde curiosité, la narration des voyages de l'auteur est pleine de détails singuliers et d'anecdotes. L'ensemble n'est pas sans esprit critique, notamment sur le Maroc, et les Portugais à Goa, ou le commerce.

Second Dutch edition of Mocquet's travels in the West Indies, Africa, the Middle East, and Europe, translated from the French. In 1601, the king of France commissioned Jean Mocquet to collect specimens for the royal Cabinet of Rarities. For this purpose, Mocquet undertook five voyages searching for curiosities, knowledge, and adventure. He visited the West Indies, Morocco, Mozambique, Ethiopia, Goa, India, Syria, and the Holy Land. Upon his return to France in 1612, Mocquet decided to embark on a voyage around the world, hunting for yet more rarities. In Spain, however, he was refused to embark a ship headed for America and returned to France, where he was employed as the keeper of the king's Cabinet of Rarities. Mocquet was a keen observer with a special interest in natural history and the manners of the peoples he encountered. He reflected on the cannibalistic practices of the Carib Indians of Guiana and the country of Yapoco and "recorded much important botanical and natural history information, describing the uses of aloes, odiferous gums, redwoords, and other trees, and the honey from stingless bees" (Howgego). The entertaining narrative, furthermore, contains much information on the Portuguese settlement in Goa with references to China, Japan, Malacca etc. and to the early Portuguese-Dutch battles in this area. One of the plates depicts a Native American woman offering a hand to a European to eat.With some loss of vellum around the spine, partially restored, some leaves restored, slightly foxed and browned throughout.

Early bookseller's notations in front endpapers. The second edition of this important account of an early French traveller, with the Caribbean cannibalism plate. Mocquet, Keeper of the Cabinet of Rarities of the King of France, describes five voyages he made between 1601 and 1612. The second part of the book is comprised of his Caribbean travels, and describes his voyage to the West Indies in 1604, including to Guiana, the country of Yapoco, and the province of Cumana. Mocquet was impressed with the good nature of the natives he encountered and describes in detail their customs, lack of clothing, cannibalistic practices, and agricultural products. He also records important botanical and natural history information, describing the uses of aloes, odiferous gums, red-woods and other trees, and the honey from stingless bees. The American section ends with several remarkable woodcuts, depicting the Caribs hunting, dancing, rowing, and eating limbs. The remainder of the book describes travel in the Holy Land, Morocco, Lybia, and elsewhere. The first of Mocquet's African travels were in Morocco, where he lived from 1605 to 1607. At the end of that year, after returning to France, he embarked on a longer voyage to East Africa, visiting Mozambique and Ethiopia during 1608 and proceeding on to India in 1609, where he spent several years. After returning from India, Mocquet made a final voyage to Syria and the Holy Land, where he gathered more plants and curiosities for the Royal collection. An important and rare account of travel in the West Indies, as well as in Africa and Asia, highlighted by early depictions of American Indian islanders and early American botanical findings.
