This text is reprinted from the Edition of 1611, edited, with notes and an introduction, along with a translation of a narrative of the expedition by Luis Hernandez de Biedma, factor to the same. For Hakluyt's translation, see The Hakluyt Handbook (Second Series, 144-5), pp. 42, 252-5. The translation of Hernandez de Biedma's narrative was made from Ternaux-Compans, Recueil de pieces sur la Floride, Paris, 1841. The supplementary material includes the 1850 annual report. This is a new print-on-demand hardback edition of the volume first published in 1851.
