Descripción

8vo; x, 310 pp frontis, plates, 4 maps, bibliog. original cloth, giltvignette on front cover, dj (trifle worn at corner), fine. A picture of this book is available upon request by email. De Surville sailed through the Pacific, to the Solomons, New Zealand, where he narrowly missed Cook and to Peru. Labe was his first mate. A valuable picture of a Pacific expedition in the heroic age of exploration, including Maori society, the first religious service in New Zealand, based on unpublished manuscripts. The detailed introduction is very useful.
