17785440Paris: Hôtel de Thou 1778. Very Good/Attractive set of the French-language version of Cook's account of his second expedition A Voyage towards the South Pole and Round the World London 1777. This astonishing journey from 1772 to 1775 went around the globe as far south as possible to explore the existence or not of a postulated southern landmass. In the course of the voyage Cooks ships Resolution and Adventure crossed deeply into Antarctic waters ultimately turned back by ice barriers. Zig-zagging through the South Pacific Cooks ships also visited Easter Island the Marquesas Tahiti the Society Islands Niue the Tonga Islands the New Hebrides New Caledonia Norfolk Island Palmerston Island South Sandwich Islands and South Georgia many of which Cook named in the process. This French edition of his report was published close on the heels of the English version in two distinct formats a five-volume quarto and a six-volume octavo with a quarto atlas containing the extraordinary set of 66 engraved plates after William Hodges. The French translator Jean-Baptiste-Antoine Suard incorporated into the text a great deal of material from the rival account of the voyage that Johann Reinhold Forster published under guise of his son Georg based on a draft of Cooks own journal. In English Forsters account was published separately. A fine set. Six volumes octavo 20 cm and atlas volume in quarto 27 cm. Text volumes bound in cat's paw calf; six-panel spines tooled in gilt with red leather title labels lettered in gilt. Marbled endleaves. Minimal wear. Atlas volume bound separately in contemporary speckled calf with black leather title label. 65 copper-engraved plates including double-page folding "Carte de l'Hemisphere Austral" portraits scenes botanical representations plans and other maps. Excellent condition throughout. References: Mitchell Library p. 52; Sabin 16249 4to ed. Hôtel de Thou hardcover books
