With:2 LABILLARDIÉRE Jacques Julien Houton de. Voyage à la recherche de Lapérouse.Paris H.J. Jansen An VIII = 1799-1800.3 ENTRECASTEAUX Antoine Raymond Joseph de Bruni chevalier d'. Voyage envoyé à la recherche de Lapérouse.Paris Imprimerie Impériale 1808. Three first editions of descriptions of the rarest and most interesting 18th-century expeditions bound as a set in beautiful contemporary uniform bindings. A milestone set in the history of exploration of the Pacific.Ad 1: Record of an important French scientific expedition in which participated a number of scientists and artists. De la Pérouse left France in 1785 with two frigates the Astrolabe and Boussole to explore the Pacific and the west coast of North America. He was sent there to explore the regions not explored by Captain Cook. Furthermore he was to seek for an interoceanic passage to scientifically observe the various countries peoples and products and to obtain reliable information about the fur trade and the extent of the Spanish settlements in California. This way De la Pérouse made a valuable contribution to the history of geographical discovery particularly concerning the American coast and its natives. The account describes expeditions to Easter Island Hawaii Macao Formosa the Aleutian Islands Samoa Tonga and Australia. The best results were obtained in exploring and mapping the unknown territories on the Asiatic side of the Pacific. This includes the discovery of the strait - still bearing De la Pérouse's name - between the island of Sakhalin and the northernmost island of Japan. De la Pérouse sent his accounts to France from Kamchatka and Botany Bay. But after the expedition left Botany Bay it was never heard from again. Two expeditions were sent out to look for him: the first was led by Dillon in 1827 the second by Dumont d'Urville in 1828. Only 39 years later the remnants of De la Pérouse's two frigates were discovered on the reef of Vanikoro one of the Santa Cruz Islands by Peter Dillon. The maps included in the present travel account is a large general map of the journey detailed maps of different isles several views and beautiful illustrations of plants birds ships people etc.Ad 2: Account of the naturalist De Labillardiére who accompanied one of the futile searches for De la Pérouse. The present expedition was sent out under d'Entrecasteaux and Huon de Kermadec in 1791-1794. Although the expedition was not successful it is of considerable importance because of the scientific observations and surveys of the coasts of Tasmania New Caledonia the north coast of New Guinea and the southwest coast of Australia it produced. De Labillardière's account of the Tongans is among the best contributions to their ethnology. The illustrations include views a portrait of a native illustrations of jewellery and 14 engraved botanical plates after Redouté.Ad 3: Scientific account of a search for De la Pérouse the same expedition as described in the work mentioned above ad 2. The expedition did not succeed but d'Entrecasteaux made important geographical discoveries and his account is extraordinarily rich in cartographical and astronomical material. The Recherche and the Espérance were under his command second captain was Huon de Kermadec after whom the islands north of New Zealand were named. The d'Entrecasteaux Islands near New Guinea were discovered and named for the admiral who later died of colic near the north coast of New Guinea. The beautiful large maps in the atlas depict wonderfully detailed illustrations of isles and coasts along the South Sea. The French Revolution divided the expedition: the royalists joined the Dutch on Java and the Republicans fell into the hands of the British Royal Navy. Also captured were the expedition's journal charts and natural history specimens. Sir Joseph Banks ordered that they be delivered to the coast of France under a flag of truce. With two small book plates on the front endpapers of Clemens Platen-Hallermund and IvR in every volume. Occasionally very slightly foxed in the margins and with a few minor tears in the bottom margin of some leaves otherwise in very good condition.

1797181908Paris: L'Imprimerie de la Republique 1797. One of the great documents of French exploration" in the original boards First edition an attractive set with strong impressions of the plates. La Pérouse's work is a "magnificent production and some authorities consider the engraving and craftsmanship to be superior even to that in the Cook-Webber atlas It is one of the finest narratives of maritime exploration ever written and certainly deserves to hold a place of high honour among the great travel accounts of the 18th century" Howell. La Pérouse's 1741-c.1788 expedition left France in 1785 to seek an inter-oceanic passage examining the parts of the Pacific not yet explored by Cook conducting scientific observations on the various peoples and regions assessing the extent of Spanish settlement in California and determining the possibilities of French expansion in the Pacific. En route to Kamchatka La Pérouse was the first to navigate safely and chart the Japan Sea and the strait between the island of Sakhalin and the northernmost island of Japan which bears his name. At Kamchatka he received instructions to proceed to Australia arriving at Botany Bay in January 1788 just hours after Captain Phillip had arrived with the First Fleet. After leaving later the same year the expedition was never seen again. Evidence slowly came to light that both ships were wrecked on the reefs around the islands north-west of Australia. This account is based on dispatches sent from Australia and Kamchatka before this. The atlas volume contains maps of Russian Asia Japan San Francisco Monterey and the Sandwich Islands. The most significant results of La Pérouse's voyage are the charts of the Asiatic side of the Pacific and the details of "the peculiarities he observed in the Native Americans of the northwest coast of North America are especially valuable" Sabin. It also features the first representation of the crested quail. The engraved portrait of La Pérouse counted as the 70th plate is here bound as the frontispiece in Volume I as often. The atlas was published in two forms: on regular usually trimmed and large or thick paper.

'The voyage round the world under the command of La Pérouse was intended as the French equivalent of Captain Cook's Third Voyage and was enthusiastically endorsed by the Academy of Sciences and particularly by Louis XVI. The most significant results of the voyage are the charts of the then imperfectly known Asiatic coast of the Pacific' Forbes. <br /><br />La Pérouse was the first explorer to navigate and chart the Japan sea and the strait between the island of Sakhalin and the northernmost island of Japan which bears his name. At Kamchatka he received instructions to proceed to Australia to assess the extent of British plans. He arrived at Botany Bay in January 1788 just hours after Governor Phillip had arrived with the First Fleet. La Pérouse's habit of forwarding copies of journals and drawings when opportunity offered ensured their survival for as is well known the accomplishments of the voyage have been overshadowed by the disappearance of the entire expedition. The folio atlas contains magnificent maps of Russian Asia Japan the Pacific North-West Coast Hawaii San Francisco and Monterey; the views include a fine series of botanical and ornithological plates including the California quail. Of particular interest to Hawaii is the plate that depicts French ships off Makena Maui. It is the first fully developed view of that island.<br /> Hill 972; Forbes 272; Lada-Mocarski 52; Ferguson 251; Brunet III 828-829; Sabin 4797.
