What 1697 book included William Dampier's guacamole-like recipe description?

William Dampier’s 1697 book A New Voyage Round the World included his guacamole-like recipe description.

Dampier was an English explorer, privateer and naturalist whose travel writing recorded unfamiliar plants, foods and preparation methods for European readers. In describing avocados, he documented mashing the fruit with ingredients in a way recognizable as an early English-language account of guacamole, although the modern dish and its name originated in Mexico.

The book was first published in 1697 as an autobiographical account of Dampier’s journeys around the world. It became influential not only as an adventure narrative but also as a work of natural history and observation. Dampier’s notes on foods and plants helped introduce terms and descriptions from regions outside Europe to a broad reading public.

The other titles are associated with exploration but do not fit this particular episode. A Voyage to New Holland was published later, in 1703, and focused on a subsequent expedition. Dampier’s avocado description belongs to the earlier 1697 volume, which is why it is often cited in histories of guacamole and of food writing.
