The East India Company Journals of Captain William Keeling and Master Thomas Bonner, 1615-1617 – Michael Strachan and Boies Penrose (Ed)

A collection of writing, documenting one of the more important expeditions to Java, as told from the point of view of Keeling and Bonner. It is Keeling’s concern with the ‘mundane’ that makes this book so interesting, documenting the every day life of the crew, how they kept themselves occupied during the long voyages, how they dealt with issues of sickness and so forth. Includes fold out map of the journey.
