‎First edition of Prof. De Buen chronological list of voyages, long and short, made by vessels of all countries that have resulted in addition to oceanographical knowledge""The entries are arranged separately for each country, and indications are in most cases given of objects or results of the voyages, names of the leaders, and in some cases of scientific personnel. The compiler is open to receive corrections or additions to the list, which indeed appears to be very complete already. The earlier entries, which begin at the end of the fifteenth century, are for voyages primarily of a geographical nature. It is interesting to note that the British records, although not given in great detail, occupy nearly one-half the whole."" (Nature, 1932).‎
