Thank you, thank you!  This was a _wonderful_ list; thus armed I 
shall descend onto the library catalogues.  I'm hoping that the 
University of Cape Town library might have some relevant material, 
since South Africa does have a certain personal interest in the 
Portuguese explorers.

Many thanks for all the suggestions from everyone: we should be able 
to make up a rather good feast from the sources I have or will be 
getting (thanks, Cindy!).  I'll web a menu when we have one, if 
anyone is interested.
