Victor Enthoven, Steve Murdoch, Eila Williamson Ben Teensmaen Limba Engleză Hardback – 24 oct 2010
His journey took three years during which time he safely brought a VOC fleet to Java and home again through tempests and full-scale battles with the Portuguese at sea.

Recenzii
"Once again the publishing house of Brill has produced a splendid book [...]."
- Jaap R. Bruijn (Leiden University, The Netherlands), International Journal of Maritime History, 2011, Vol. XXIII, No. 2, pp. 378 - 379
"...source publications like these are necessary to show that the endeavours of East India Companies should never be considered simply as national projects, but seen more as European undertakings. Certainly the books offers us an opportunity to marvel at how different sailing the world must have been almost four centuries ago and offers us an intriguing insight into the world of the East India Companies."
