Following the mysterious disappearance of the La Prouse expedition after it sailed out of Botany Bay in 1788, the French botanist JacquesJulien Houtou de Labillardire (17551834) took part in the search that departed in 1791 from Brest in two ships, Recherche and Esprance. In the space of three years, the expedition's naturalists collected numerous specimens, with Labillardire 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 Labillardire 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. Volume 1 covers the expedition from September 1791 through to January 1793, when it reached Tasmania.
