WILCOCKE (Samuel Hull).

History of the Viceroyalty of Buenos Ayres;

It is not clear whether this undated issue precedes or succeeds the 1807 edition, published by H.D. Symonds. It certainly precedes the supposed 2nd edition of 1820. The preface, the plan, the map, and one of the plates are all dated 1806. As noted on the title page, the book is a compilation of geographical, historical, commercial, political, and social information related to the Viceroyalty of Buenos Ayres. When deemed to be of particular interest, the author also included similar information for Brazil, Peru, and Chili. Sabin, 103962.
