A fierce and cynical indictment against the abuses in the government of the Dutch East Indies

[INDONESIA].
Nederlandsch India, in haaren tegenwoordigen toestand beschouwd; of waar en gronding berigt van haare regeering, derzelver bestier en handelingen; haare bezittingen; haare militie; haar kwijnenden handel, zeevaart, enz.






Batavia, no publ., no date (1780). 8vo. Contemporary boards. 80 pp.

Original edition of a well-written and very critical report on the present state of the Dutch East Indies, their goverment and administration, militia, the declining trade, navigation, etc. It is one long indictment against the abuses in the Dutch East Indies at the time, and more than half a century before Multatuli!

Good uncut copy.- (Margins of the first lvs. frayed; the date (1780) and a note saying that the text was also translated into French in contemporary handwriting on title).
Landwehr, VOC ,1596; Cat. NHSM I, 506; Rouffaer, p.62.
