Note 857 — Chapter VIII
Reading edition
The same Johann Ludwig Gottfriedt published in 1655 Newe Welt vnd Amerikanische Historien. A later German geographer of America was Hans Just Winckelmann, whose Der Amerikanischen neuen Welt Beschreibung, Oldenburg, 1664, I have not seen. Nor have I seen any works of French contemporary writers, as Pierre Davity, Description générale de l’Amérique, 3me partie du monde, avec tous ses empires, royaumes, etc., Paris, 1643, 2d edition, 1660; M. C. Chaulmer, Le Nouveau Monde, ou l’Amérique chrétienne, Paris, 1659. [The last is in Harvard College Library; but without present interest.—Ed.]
