520 |a Admiral Jean Francois de Galaup, Comte de la Perouse, is second only to Cook as an eighteenth-century explorer who filled in many blank spaces on the map of the Pacific Ocean. His expedition was sent out by the government of Louis XVI for the advancement of science and promotion of French foreign trade. He sailed the length and breadth of the Pacific and sent back to Europe the first full account of Easter Island, a good description of Samoa, and news of discovery of the strait separating Sakhalin Island from Hokkaido.The original report of the expedition was published in Paris in 1797 in three volumes, condensed into one by F. Valentin in 1839. The present translation is of the fourteenth edition of Valentin. It includes a supplement consisting of notes on the natives of various islands including Easter Island and Maui and an appendix describing efforts made to solve the mystery of the disappearance of the expedition, last seen in Botany Bay on January 26, 1778. Also included are reproductions of engravings published originally with the official accounts.
