Only 100 copies were printed upon paper of quarto size.

"This is the first printed description, in the English language, of the country now forming the wealthy and populous States of New York and New Jersey; but being under one government at that time (1670). And so great was the rarity of this book, that until the importation of the volume from which this small edition has been printed, but two copies were known to exist in the United States; one in the State Library at Albany, and the other in the Collection of Harvard University."
