The title refers to the search for La Pérouse, a prominent French naval officer and explorer who disappeared in the region in 1788, starting the mystery of the lost La Pérouse expedition. Although the d'Entrecasteaux expedition in search of La Pérouse wasn't successful, the description of the journey, an atlas, and illustrations of ethnographic and natural history subjects, collected on the way had a great scientific value, which made the book popular in France and abroad.

Download or read book An Account of a Voyage in Search of La Pérouse written by Jacques-Julien Houtou de La Billardière and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1800 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the mysterious disappearance of the La Pérouse expedition after it sailed out of Botany Bay in 1788, the French botanist Jacques-Julien Houtou de Labillardière (1755-1834) took part in the search that departed in 1791 from Brest in two ships, Recherche and Espérance. In the space of three years, the expedition's naturalists collected numerous specimens, with Labillardière focusing on Australian flora, but their missing countrymen were never found. Notwithstanding the later confiscation of the scientific collections by the British - Sir Joseph Banks helped to secure their return - Labillardière was able to publish this narrative to great acclaim in 1800. Reissued here is the English translation of the same year, complete with a volume of finely engraved plates. The work is especially notable for its descriptions and illustrations of the indigenous peoples of Australasia. This volume of illustrations contains more than forty plates depicting people, artefacts, plants and animals.--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the afternoon of September 14, 1786, two French ships appeared off the coast of Monterey, the first foreign vessels to visit Spain's California colonies. Aboard was a party of eminent scientists, navigators, cartographers, illustrators, and physicians. For the next ten days the commander of this expedition, Jean François de La Pérouse, took detailed notes on the life and character of the area: its abundant wildlife, the labors of soldiers and monks, and the customs of Indians recently drawn into the mission. These observations provide a startling portrait of California two centuries ago.
