Paris: Impr. De Rignoux for Arthus Bertrand 1837. Later three-quarter red morocco with the title author and volume numbers lettered in gold on the spine marbled paper sides marbled paper end-papers. With 34 full-page lithographed views and costume plates 12 hand-coloured full-page engraved plates a double-page hand-coloured aquatint 7 engraved maps 1 folding 6 double-page 2 double-page plates and few steel-engraved illustrations in the text. 2 text volumes 4to and 1 atlas volume folio: 545 x 350 mm. First and only edition of a richly illustrated work on the French circumnavigation of the world under command of Baron de Bougainville 1781-1846 son of the great explorer Louis de Bougainville. The goal of the voyage was to extend France's influence in Indochina. However Bougainville also visited Pondicherry Manila Macao Surabaya Sydney Port Jackson Valparaiso and Rio de Janeiro. He brought back a collection of natural history specimens from his expedition which was described as one of the most precious and important that had been seen in France.After distinguished service in the Napoleonic Wars Bougainville was promoted to post-captain and given command of the Thétis. She was only the second French frigate to be commissioned for a circumnavigation the first having been his father's vessel the Boudeuse. The voyage took twenty-eight months and the official account was published after a delay of some eleven years. The major purpose of the expedition was political and strategic and Bougainville's first report of 1826 gave the French government a survey of colonial possessions in Asia and of the military strength of Manila as well as accounts of Singapore the Australian colonies and Spanish America. Bougainville's advice was taken into account in the development of French strategy and diplomacy in the Pacific during the 19th century. He also spent several months in and around Sydney where he collected considerable ornithological material. This ultimately resulted in three drawings by Bessa of four species of birds including superb illustrations of the male and female Gang-gang or red-crested parrot.The text contains an account of the voyage. The gorgeously coloured engraved plates show plants and animals including a curious case of Siamese twins a bat an Australian kangaroo a chameleon a "Gymnodactile Phyllure" a fine plate with butterflies and two plates of indigenous plants. The double-page maps of places visited include two double-page plates with views of the coast-lines of the Maldives and the Philippines a folding double-page map of the world showing the routes of De Bougainville's voyage as well as the route his father took in 1766-1769 and a beautiful hand-coloured plate with sailing ships and rowing boats in use in the Chinese Sea and Indian Ocean by China Manilla the Dutch East-Indies and Japan. The lithographed plates show views and costumes of India the Philippines China Cambodia Java Sidney and elsewhere in Australia Chile Rio de la Plata and Brazil.Bound with the original wrappers.

BOUGAINVILLE, Louis Antoine de
Voyage Autour du Monde
Paris: Saillant & Nyon 1771. A wealth of scientific and geographical detail about the Pacific Ocean First edition of this account of the first French circumnavigation. Bougainville travelled to the Falkland Islands in 1766 to formally deliver the French settlement to Spain continuing into the Pacific and around the world. The clandestine passenger Jeanne Baret disguised as a man became the first woman on record to have circumnavigated the globe. Louis Antoine de Bougainville 1729-1811 studied law but abandoned it to join the army as a musketeer in 1753 serving in the Seven Years War. He was later appointed commander of the frigate La Boudeuse and the transport L'Étoile setting sail in December 1766. He entered the Pacific in 1768 and landed on Tahiti claiming it for France unaware of the visit of Samuel Wallis nine months earlier. On Tahiti it was discovered that the botanist's valet was a woman Jeanne Baret who enlisted as Jean Baret. The ships continued due west through Samoa and the New Hebrides eventually making the first recorded European sighting of the Great Barrier Reef. Turning north 100 miles from the coast of Queensland he passed through New Guinea to the Solomon Islands proceeding thence to the Moluccas where the Dutch allowed him to refit. Bougainville carried on to Djakarta and Mauritius and then home to St Malo. He was in Buenos Aires when the order of the expulsion of the Jesuits of Paraguay arrived which he describes in detail. Bougainville's name is given to the largest member of the Solomon Islands and to the strait which divides it from the British Island of Choiseul. It is also applied to the strait between Mallicollo and Espiritu Santo Islands of the New Hebrides group as well as to the South American climbing plant Bougainvillea. The book is notable for the influential description of Tahiti which Bougainville christened New Cythera after the abode of Aphrodite. "It is difficult to overstate the importance of the discovery of Tahiti on the European imagination of the context of utopian projections seemingly becoming real. Tahiti rapidly permeated European mythology" Arthur p. 82. His description of Tahiti and other South Sea islands also includes a 300-word vocabulary. Bougainville's account of the Tahitians followed the lead of thinkers such as Jean-Jacques Rousseau who was "popularizing the idea of the natural man in Europe. Denis Diderot inspired by Bougainville drew upon Rousseu's ideal of a natural state of humanity in his Supplement au voyage de Bougainville a work that can be understood as a commentary on colonialism" ibid. p. 82. Quarto 250 x 185 mm. With 3 engraved plates of boats 20 maps and charts most of them folding woodcut head- and tailpieces and historiated capitals. Contemporary French cat's paw calf tan morocco label spine gilt in compartments triple-ruled gilt panel to boards marbled endpapers and edges. 18th- or early 19th-century stamp of the Bibliothèque de Montmirail to title and last page. Skilful restoration to spine ends front joint and fore edge of rear board 100 mm closed tear to one fold of world map facing p. 18 loss to bottom corner of sig.

The purpose of this expedition was to explore the Pacific especially the Australian coast and New Guinea to examine the geographical and ecological conditions for economic benefit and to extend the influence of the French crown by seizing land. From an economic point of view the journey was not very successful but in Europe the description of Tahiti shaped the image of the island as a paradise where people seem to live free of constraints. Bouganville's travelogue became a bestseller that spread throughout Europe and the myth of the South Seas continues to inspire philosophers artists and writers to this day.</p> Saillant & Nyon hardcover

BOUGAINVILLE, Louis Antoine de
Voyage autour du Monde par la frégate du roi La Boudeuse. Nouvelle édition augmentée.
Neuchâtel: Société Thypographique sic 1773. In fine original condition. Two volumes in one small octavo; a fine copy in an attractive contemporary binding of marbled calf sides bordered in gilt the flat spine ornately gilt with a repeating drawer-handle design. <p><p>A most attractive copy of the Neuchâtel version of the official account of the Bougainville voyage based on the first French edition of 1771. This was the first official French circumnavigation and in many ways the most consequential of all the many French voyages into the Pacific commemorated on today's maps by a multitude of geographical names. Bougainville's description of his travels in the Pacific created enormous interest in France and was largely responsible for building up the romantic vision of a South Sea paradise where Rousseau's noble savage lived in a state of blissful innocence.</p> <p>Bougainville's expedition passed through the Straits of Magellan in January 1768. After some time looking for the mythical "Davis Land" said to be off the Chilean coast they started on a direct route across the Pacific. They discovered the Tuamotus sighted Tahiti in April then visited Samoa sailed through Melanesia sighted the Great Barrier Reef and passed through the Solomons and New Britain to Batavia.</p> <p>Bougainville not knowing of Wallis's stop there a year earlier thought that he had discovered Tahiti and his lengthy account of the island group is an interesting counterpart to Wallis's account. The vocabulary of 300 words that he prints is the first such vocabulary to appear of any Polynesian language.</p> <p>Unillustrated this edition is in a much smaller format than the first edition; the addition referred to in the title is a new 22-page dictionary of nautical terms. This version proved popular and was reprinted several times at Neuchâtel. It is quite scarce today: there is no copy in the catalogue of the Hill Collection.</p> </p> .

Bougainville Hyacinthe de
JOURNAL DE LA NAVIGATION AUTOUR DU GLOBE DE LA FRÉGATE LA THÉTIS ET DE LA CORVETTE L'ESPÉRANCE PENDANT LES ANNÉES 1824 1825 ET 1826
Paris: Arthus Bertrand 1837. Two large quarto text volumes plus folio atlas. Text volumes: vi742; xvi3511652pp. Atlas: 4pp. plus fifty- six engraved or lithographed plates and double-page maps many handcolored. Errata. Lacking front blank in first volume. Half titles. Uniform contemporary half tan diced russia and marbled boards text and altas neatly rebacked preserving original backstrips. Two modern bookplates on each front pastedown minor scattered foxing. Varying degrees of foxing to atlas plates. Very good. First edition of the official record of Bougainville's voyage around the world. Hyacinthe de Bougainville son of Louis de Bougainville sailed as an ensign at the age of eighteen on the Baudin voyage. His own expedition of 1826 has continued to be overshadowed by such circumnavigators as Dumont d'Urville. After distinguished service in the Napoleonic Wars Bougainville was promoted to post-captain and given command of the Thétis. She was only the second French frigate to be commissioned for a circumnavigation the first having been his father's vessel the Boudeuse. <br> <br> The voyage took twenty-eight months visiting Pondicherry Manila Macao Surabaya Sydney a stay of almost three months Valparaiso and Rio among other places. Bougainville returned to France with a fine collection of natural history specimens and the official account of the voyage was handsomely published after a delay of some eleven years. The major purpose of the expedition was political and strategic and Bougainville's first report of 1826 gave the French government a survey of colonial possessions in Asia and of the military strength of Manila as well as accounts of Singapore the Australian colonies and Spanish America. He spent several months in and around Sydney where he collected considerable ornithological material. This ultimately resulted in three drawings by Bessa of four species of birds including superb illustrations of the male and female Gang-gang or red-crested parrot. <br> <br> From here both ships crossed to Valparaiso where la Touanne commenced his overland journey to rejoin the expedition at Rio. The account of this journey takes up much of the second volume together with René Primevère Lesson's account of the natural history. Bougainville's advice was taken into account in the development of French strategy and diplomacy in the Pacific during the 19th century. <br> <br> The rare atlas volume includes thirty-four lithographed views and portraits after Adam Sabatier and others from sketches by de la Touanne printed by Bernard & Frey; twelve handcolored engraved natural history plates after Bessa and Pretre by Coutant Legrand Oudet Dumenil and Massard; an excellent double-page handcolored aquatint of various native vessels; a folding engraved world map; two double-page coastal profiles and six double-page engraved maps and charts by Tardieu after de la Touanne. <br> <br> A handsome copy of a historically underappreciated circumnavigation.

BOUGAINVILLE LOUIS ANTOINE
Bougainville Requests Support for an Officer Destined to Serve in the Falkland Islands and Aboard Bougainville’s Historic Circumnavigation of the World
<p><b>BOUGAINVILLE LOUIS-ANTOINE. </b>1729-1811. French navigator who led the first French voyage around the world in 1766-1769 making significant geographical observations; the South American climbing plant Bougainvillea is named in his honor. ADS. <i>"De Bougainville"</i>. ½p. Tall 4to. Versailles September 5 1764. To the French Minister of Foreign Affairs <b>ÉTIENNE FRANÇOIS DUC DE CHOISEUL</b> 1719-1785. In French with translation.</p><p><i>"Memorandum</i></p><p><i>Mr de Bougainville begs Monseigneur the Duke de Choiseul to be good enough to grant Sir de Romainville an appointment of infantry lieutenant. This young man embarks with him and must be employed in the colony both for detachments and for the reconnaissance of the island. He's already participated to the campaigns of 1759 and 1760 and 1761 as volunteer in the chasseurs of Conflans and that of 1762 as aide-de-camp of Mr. Dennery chief of the Condé army general staff."</i></p><p>A French army officer who worked in London's French embassy Bougainville served as General Montcalm's aide in Canada during the French and Indian War – the American theater of the Seven Years War that pitted Britain Prussia Portugal against France Spain Russia and the Holy Roman Empire. Unable to prevent the British from capturing Quebec and Montreal Bougainville lost his military commission upon the French surrender. For the remainder of the war from 1761-1763 he was instrumental in negotiating the Treaty of Paris by France and Spain ceded vast amounts of overseas holdings to Great Britain including much of their North American territories. </p><p>Beginning in 1755 and with renewed vigor in 1758 the British expelled or deported Acadians French settlers of New Brunswick Nova Scotia the Magdalen Islands Prince Edward Island and parts of modern Maine. Following the Treaty of Paris many Acadians relocated to Louisiana which had been transferred from France to Spain at the end of the war. However Bougainville initiated and personally funded a plan to settle the displaced Acadians on the Isles Malouines or Falkland Islands. </p><p>Located off the coast of Chile the Falkland Islands first appeared on the maps of European explorers in the 16th century but remained uninhabited despite territorial claims of both Britain and Spain. With two ships Bougainville departed from France in September 1763 and arrived in the Falkland Islands in January 1764 establishing a naval base at Port Louis. Upon their return to France King Louis XV ratified French possession of the islands on September 12 1764 seven days after our letter. </p><p>However French claim to the island was contested and in 1766 Bougainville's colony was transferred to the Spanish who agreed to compensation. Thereafter Britain and Spain clashed over their claims to the Falkland Islands. Currently a British overseas territory the islands are still the object of contention having been fought over between Great Britain and Argentina in 1982. </p><p>After officially releasing the Falkland Islands to the Spanish in December 1766 Bougainville embarked upon a round-the-world voyage continuing to Buenos Aires the Tuamotu Archipelago and Tahiti before venturing across the Pacific. By the following September his ship <i>La Boudeuse</i> had reached Batavia now Jakarta and on February 16 1769 after nearly two-and-a-half years on the high seas she returned with the loss of only seven crew members to the northwestern French port of St.-Malo. Bougainville's lively account of his travels appeared in 1771. A participant in the American Revolution Bougainville was also a notable mathematician and the first to calculate longitude by means of astronomical observations. The flowering vine Bougainvillea is named in his honor.</p><p>A French noble and army officer Choiseul earned the patronage of Madame de Pompadour after he obtained for her letters written by King Louis XV to another mistress. She helped establish Choiseul's diplomatic career during which he helped author the Second Treaty of Versailles. He was French minister of foreign affairs during the Seven Years War after which he dedicated himself to rebuilding the military and French power abroad. He served as foreign minister from 1766-1770. </p><p>Our letter asks for the promotion to lieutenant of <b>Charles Routier de Romainville</b>1739-1808 and mentions his recent military service under <b>Louis Joseph Prince de Condé</b> 1736-1818 in the 1762 Battle of Nauheim during which Condé's French troops defeated Hanoverian and British troops. Romainville received his appointment to the rank of lieutenant in November 1764 and joined Bougainville on his expedition to the Falklands remaining there to implement their plans for the new colony until he joined Bougainville on his round-the-world voyage and in so doing made his name as an engineer and cartographer. He later went on to help establish a French colony on the Seychelles. </p><p>From the collection of 19th-century French chemist and autographs collector Antoine-François Boutron-Charlard and 19th-century French chemist Edmond Frémy.

Bougainville Louis Antoine de
A Voyage round the World.In the years 1776 1767 1768 and 1769.Translated from the French by John Reinhold Forster.
London: Printed for J. Nourse.and T. Davies. 1772. First English Edition. 12 engraved maps and charts on 5 folding plates including the Straits of Magellan one folding engraved plate with the 3 images of Polynesian pirogues and a canoe with the Tahitian vocabulary. 1 vols. 4to 261 x 211 cm. Contemporary brown calf neatly rebacked with corners renewed.Clean copyWith bookplate of Frank Streeter. First English Edition. 12 engraved maps and charts on 5 folding plates including the Straits of Magellan one folding engraved plate with the 3 images of Polynesian pirogues and a canoe with the Tahitian vocabulary. 1 vols. 4to 261 x 211 cm. The First French Circumnavigation. First English edition of the first French circumnavigation first published in Paris 1771. Bougainville's command was to first turn over the Falkland Malvinas Islands to the Spanish allies of the French. He tells the story of the discovery and occupation of the Falklands and devotes a chapter to their natural history. He was at Buenos Aires when the order came to expel the Jesuits of Paraguay which he describes in detail. He then continued through the Straits of Magellan and across the Pacific to the East Indies and thence home in a three year voyage which was France's first official circumnavigation of the word. Many Pacific Islands were visited there is a lengthy description of Tahiti including a 300 word vocabulary of words used on the island at the end of the book and although Bougainville made few important discoveries the effect of his voyage on the French was to stimulate their interest in the Pacific and inspire the later voyages of Du Fresne and La Pérouse. Bougainville after whom the tropical flower is named later fought in the American Revolution and was made a count of the Empire by Napoleon.<br/><br/> It was translated by John Forster the Naturalist aboard the Resolution on James Cook's second voyage 1772-75. France's first official circumnavigation was commanded by Bougainville who saw the strategic advantage in commanding the route to the Pacific around Cape Horn hence his attempted colonization of the Falkland Islands in 1763 and his new charts of the Straits of Magellan. As well as bringing back news of his discoveries in the Pacific Bougainville also brought back a Tahitian Mayoa. It was the decision to return this young man to his home that prompted the French Government to mount another exploratory voyage led by de Fresne in 1771. Hill states that Johann Reinhold's son Georg also Naturalist aboard the Resolution may have been the actual translator of this work while Johann contributed the preface dedication and footnotes. Hill p. 32; Sabin 6869; Kroepelien 113; O'Reilly and Reitman 285 Printed for J. Nourse...and T. Davies.. unknown books
