Cartobibliographic notes: 
Some copies have the full page maps on p. 19 and 27 printed upside down. This copy is one that is printed this way. Noort and his men used Albay as a base for attacking incoming junks from China and Japan with goods intended to be traded with the Spanish as part of the Manila-Acapulco trade.
