1815réf. 183470Milano: Sonzogno e Compagni Editori 1815. One of the finest narratives of maritime exploration ever written First Italian edition. The most significant results of La Pérouse's voyage are the details of "the peculiarities he observed in the natives of the North West coast of North America which are especially valuable" Sabin. La Pérouse's account was originally published in French in 1797 this edition was published as part of the series Raccolta di Viaggi dopo quelli di Cook. 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 to assess the extent of British plans in New South Wales. Travelling via Samoa where he discovered the islands of Savaii Manono and Apolima in December 1787 and through the Tongan group he arrived at Botany Bay in January 1788 just hours after Captain Phillip had arrived with the First Fleet. La Pérouse's habit of forwarding despatches whenever the opportunity offered ensured their survival; the final despatches were sent from Botany Bay after which 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. Forbes examined three copies at the Alexander Turnbull Library the collection of Rodney Davidson and the University of Washington Seattle; none of these nor the four other copies he cites have the portrait. This copy also does not include the frontispiece portrait. 4 vols bound in 2 small octavo 164 x 99 mm pp. xxviii 236 28 pp. 294; pp. 271 pp. 297 14. With 16 plates coloured folding map.

1827réf. 4011312Livorno: Tipografia Vignozzi 1827. Three leaves a little short at the margins printer's error a little foxing but very good. Three volumes duodecimo three frontispieces and three plates all with good contemporary handcolouring; contemporary quarter roan binding lettered in gilt marbled boards with vellum tips. Attractive early Italian edition of La Pérouse's voyage containing six charming coloured plates three of which are not recorded in the standard bibliographies. The first of these unrecorded plates is a costume study captioned "Uomo e Donna volgari della Concezione"; the second a view of Macao and the third depicts the death of botanist and savant Robert de Lamanon amidst a melée in Samoa during 1787. Neither Ferguson Forbes nor McLaren note the three plates additional to the frontispieces. Forbes did not in fact manage to inspect a copy of the book. Ferguson cites his own copy while McLaren consulted the Nan Kivell copy held by the National Library. This edition was part of a larger collection of voyages published in uniform duodecimo format with the series title Biblioteca Istruttiva e Piacevole ovvero raccolta dei più interessanti viaggi. Forbes confirms that each of the voyages was available separately. The spines in this set number the volumes within the series. . Tipografia Vignozzi unknown
1798réf. 23577London: John Stockdale 1798. First Stockdale edition. Hardcover. Recently expertly rebacked retaining all original materials some toning to text and plates but a very good copy. 2 volumes contemporary full tan calf by H. Faulkner; 20 cxc 290; viii 442 119 pp 51 engraved plates in the 2 volumes including 3 folding maps in first volume. Printed label at upper corner of verso of front free endpaper: "Bound by H. Faulkner George Court Adelphi." The British Book Trade Directory finds a Henry Faulkner Sr. succeded by Henry Faulkner Jr. at a George Court Adelphi from 1790 to 1825. Originally published in French in 1797 this is one of two English-language translations published in 1798. This edition preceded earlier in the year by the Johnson edition which had only 41 plates. "The narrative of the enterprising but ill-fated Pérouse is full of interest in all portions but his relations of the peculiarities he observed in the natives of the northwest coast of North America are especially valuable. The mysterious fate of this distinguished navigator has never been satisfactorily cleared up. The above account was transmitted from Botany Bay after leaving this place the expedition was never heard of again" Sabin. In fact recent investigations into the fate of La Perouse have determined that both ships in the expedition were wrecked on the reefs of Vanikoro in the Solomon Islands. Cox I p. 67; Hill 974 observing that "The preface to the Stockdale edition leads one to suppose that the Johnson edition was published slightly earlier; Sabin 38964. John Stockdale hardcover
