Internally clean and fine, a few leaves with marginal brownspots.‎

‎First edition of this famous circumnavigation, being the first voyage around the world with professional naturalists and geographers onboard. Bougainville was the first Frenchman to sail around the world. In 1771, Bougainville published his travel log from the expedition under the title ""Le voyage autour du monde, par la frégate La Boudeuse, et la flûte L'Étoile"". The book describes the geography, biology and anthropology of Argentina (then a Spanish colony), Patagonia, Tahiti and Indonesia (then a Dutch colony). The book was a sensation, especially the description of Tahitian society. Bougainville described it as an earthly paradise where men and women lived in blissful innocence, far from the corruption of civilisation.Bougainville's descriptions powerfully expressed the concept of the noble savage, influencing the utopian thoughts of philosophers such as Jean-Jacques Rousseau before the advent of the French Revolution. Denis Diderot's book Supplément au voyage de Bougainville retells the story of Bougainville's landing on Tahiti, narrated by an anonymous reader to one of his friends. Diderot used his fictional approach, including a description of the Tahitians as noble savages, to criticise Western ways of living and thinking.Sabin, 6864.‎

Such Irish printings are effectively piracies; typically the text remains unchanged while the harder to copy maps and illustrations are partly or completely dropped; this edition has a map and a plate.

‎A Voyage Round The World. Performed by Order of His Most Christian Majesty In the Years 1766 1767 1768 and 1769.Translated from the French By John Reinhold Forster F.A.S‎

‎<p>London: Printed for J.Nourse and T.Davies 1772. First Edition of the English Translation of the official account of the first French circumnavigation. Bougainville was instructed by the French government to surrender possession of the Falkland Islands to Spain and then to proceed across the Pacific to the East Indies. On his voyage he visited Tahiti which he believed he was the first to discover naming it ‘Nouvelle Cythère’ unaware of Wallis’s prior exploration the Solomon Islands Tuamotu Archipelago and the New Hebrides. The largest island in the Solomons and two straits in the Pacific were named after him. The narrative includes an account of the discovery and occupation of the Falkland Islands and a lengthy description of Tahiti and its inhabitants. Bougainville’s expedition stimulated great interest in France and bolstered European romantic notions of a ‘South Sea paradise’ inhabited by ‘noble savages’. Despite the attribution on the title-page the translation was probably done by Georg Forster while his father Johann Reinhold supplied the preface dedication and footnotes. Bell B423. Cox I 55.

‎London: T. Nourse and J. Davies 1772. 4to. 10 2/8 x 8 2/8 inches. One fine folding panoramic plate 5 fine large folding engraved plates tiny tear near the gutter of two maps only.

Provenance: Contemporary engraved bookplate of Charles St. Clair 13th Lord Sinclair 1768-1863 on the front paste-down. The first official French circumnavigation First English edition and an EXCEPTIONALLY BRIGHT AND ATTRACTIVE COPY. First published in Paris in 1771. Bougainville "had been aide-de-camp to the Marquis de Montcalm in Canada and he acted for the French at their surrender to the British at Montreal in 1760. Bougainville attempted to colonize the Ilse Malouines in 1762-1764 seeing their strategic advantage in commanding the route to the Pacific around South America. Diplomatic negotiations in Paris later forced Bougainville to cede the islands known as Islas Malvinas to the Spanish and the Falkland Islands to the English to Spain. A chapter of the present work is devoted to the natural history of these contested islands. During this voyage Bougainville visited Rio de Janeiro Montevideo and Patagonia in South America; he was also in Buenos Aires when the order for the expulsion of the Jesuits of Paraguay arrived which he describes in detail. He then proceeded through the Strait of Magellan and across the Pacific visiting the Tuamotu Archipelago Tahiti the Samoa Islands the New Hebrides and the Solomon Louisiade and New Britian archipelagoes.Bougainville created a great deal of interest among the French in the Pacific which resulted in the voyages of Marc-Joseph Marion du Fresne and Jean Francois de la Perouse. The largest island in the Solomons and two straits in the Pacific bear his name and the tropical flowering vine called bougainvillea was also named for him. Bougainville later took part in the American Revolution survived the French Revolution and was made a senator and count of the Empire of Napoleon I." Hill cf 163. Hill 165; Sabin 6869.
