The first to include the important Derrotas, the instructions for navigation within the Americas. 'The original edition of the voyage for the discovery of the Magellan Straits, etc., performed by the two brothers Captains Nodal ... is one of the rarest books of its class... The strait of San Vincente had been traversed by Le Maire shortly before the brothers Nodal, and his name has remained to designate it. But the Spanish map has a special value of its own, and is more detailed than Le Maire's...' (Sabin).

First published in 1621, the Nodal brothers' landmark voyage includes the first circumnavigation of Tierra del Fuego. They were dispatched by the Spanish authorities who had become alarmed by the news of the discoveries made by Le Maire and Schouten on their voyage of 1616 in search of the Southern Continent. The Nodals returned with accurate observations of the tides in the Straits of Magellan and precise sailing instructions for the area.

Second edition of Nodal. 2 works in one vol., small 4to, [xx], 162, [ii]; [ii], 43 pp., engraved folding map. Contemporary limp vellum, spine ink lettered, a fine example.
