Hakluyt Society 1894-1900
A bibliography is available online.
The Hakluyt Society produces scholarly editions of primary sources on the voyages and travels undertaken around the world. These include early accounts discussing the geography, ethnology and natural history of the regions visited. Although many editions relate to British ventures, with documentary sources in English, the majority concern non-British enterprises and appear in translation. All editions contain scholarly annotation which put the material in the context of global development and world history.

- Captain Cook’s voyages
- William Bligh and the voyages of the Bounty
- The Grand Tour
- Pilgrimages to the Holy Land
- Missionary work
