His aim was to explore the Pacific regions of North and South America Asia and Australasia. The sponsor of the expedition was the French king Louis XVI who was inspired by Captain James Cook's Pacific voyages. Louis ordered the French expedition to show the world that France could also dominate in ocean exploration. The expedition consisted of two ships - La Boussole and L'Astrolabe. They carried a total of 225 crew officers and scientists. The ships left France in August 1785 and sailed south around Cape Horn. The voyage was expected to last four years. During the voyage La Perouse sent back regular reports to France. The expedition mapped coastlines and explored uncharted areas of ocean. The expedition's scientists also spent time onshore at various ports observing the habits and customs of local people and collecting natural history specimens. The expedition's progess until September 1787 was published by the French government as Voyage de La Perouse autour du monde La Perouse's voyage around the world. It was reprinted many times and translated into several languages. In 1791 when La Perouse had not returned to France or made any contact by dispatch the French government sent out a search party. It was commanded by Rear Admiral Joseph Antoine Bruni d'Entrecasteaux and consisted of two ships Recherche and Esperance. The complete disappearance of La Perouse caught the imagination of the European public. Songs stories and plays were written about the possible fate of the expedition including a popular play called Perouse or The desolate island. It was not until 1964 that the wreck of La Boussole was finally discovered on Vanikoro's reefs. At last the fate of La Perouse and his crew was known. The expedition is commemorated in the name of a Sydney suburb on the shores of Botany Bay - La Perouse." State Library of New South Wales Website.Sabin 38960. </em> unknown

The La Perouse account was first published in Paris in French in 1797 and in English in 1798. This is one of the earliest Pacific voyages to appear in an American edition and published much less modestly than the French and British editions would have been the way the average American would have learned about La Perouse's important surveys of the Pacific coast and his descriptions of native Americans there. This is also the first American version although only a precis of Vancouver's voyage first published in London in 1798. The 1781 voyage of Spanish naval officer Francisco Antonio Mourelle incorrectly spelled in this edition's title went from the Philippines to the South Pacific where he explored in the vicinity of New Guinea and the Tonga Islands before sailing to Mexico. Howes is inaccurate in his pagination of this edition and the Hill copy contains a map that was added later. unknown
