Not included in the collection of Van der Aa, Naaukeurige versameling der gedenk-waardigste zee en land reysen, but separately issued as a supplement. - Jacob Janssen de Roy's book, the largest single description of Borneo printed during the century, which probably appeared in 1698 or 1699 for the first time, is an extended apologia written to the governor-general and council at Batavia by a skipper who had lost his ship on the coast of Borneo in February, 1692, as a result of the mutiny of his largely Chinese and Javanese crew. He and his shipmates barely survived hunger, thirst, exposure, hostile natives, and treachery before receiving good treatment and protection from the king of Banjarmasin in return for military assistance. Despite obtaining trading rights for the VOC, Roy was outlawed for absconding with the ship's money and subsequently sailed as a free trader in the Indies, visiting Borneo, Sumatra and Siam. Having acquired a considerable fortune from his enterprises, he was employed by the king of Siam to dispose of a certain English pirate who was visiting Siamese waters. The Roy's account includes brief descriptions of both Brunei and Sukadana although most of his description concern Banjarmasin. He also provided European readers with their first published description of Borneo's interior and of the people who lived there (Lach, Asia in the making of Europe, III, p.1390-1395). - Including an extensive description of the gold and diamonds mines on Borneo and the pirates of Palembang. - A fine copy.Landwehr, VOC, 291; Tiele 944; Cat.

He left the colony after a conflict with the governor-general about the expansion of authority in Sumatra. 'Veth published the book because it clarified a little-known episode in colonial history. In Veth's view, it underscored the need for the Netherlands to concern itself more actively with the administration of the Outer Islands. In an annotated introduction running to over a hundred pages Veth reviewed the history of Dutch military action on Sumatra' (Van der Velde, P.J. Veth, p. 119).
