L'HERMITE, Jacques. Journael van de Nassausche vloot/ ofte beschrijvingh van de voyagie om den gantschen aerd-kloot, gedaen met elf schepen onder 't beleydt van den admirael Jaques 'LHeremite, ende vice-admirael Gheen Huygen Schapenham, in de jaren 1623, 1624, 1625 en 1626.

Extracted from Commelin's collection of voyages. - The first official account of the circumnavigation was published in 1626. This punitive fleet of eleven ships set sail to the coasts of South America with the objective of clearing the westward route to the Pacific of Spanish and Portuguese shipping. The fleet was outfitted under the auspices of the Dutch gouvernment, the two major companies, the Dutch East India Company and Dutch West India Company, having little interest in the Pacific (Howgego p.615). L'Hermite attacked Lima, burned a Spanish fleet at Callao, and went as far as north as Acapulco. It was one of the most spectacular raids against Spanish shipping. With important appendix: Description of Peru and Chile by Pedro de Madriga; Pedro Fernandez de Quir's voyage to Australia; and the history of the Dutch conquest of Banda. After L'Hermite was killed in Peru, Schapenham was appointed fleet commander and the veteran Jan Willemsz. Verschoor became vice admiral. They arrived for Ambon on April 2, 1625 with two captured ships. The 900 soldiers of the Nassau fleet helped Herman van Speult with an army of 2,000 men in the destruction of plantations on the west coast of Ceram. - (Age-browned).Landwehr, VOC, 250; European Americana II, p.453.
