		There was much international rivalry in the Pacific at the start of the nineteenth century and it is no surprise that the purpose of Laplace's voyage of circumnavigation in 1829-32 was political: to renew relations with the French missions established in Cochin China and to fight British Expansion in the islands of Oceania.
		Lesson was the assistant surgeon on this voyage but his main claim to fame was as a naturalist: the colour plates in this volume demonstrate this interest.
		Our facsimile is of the Paris de luxe edition and covers the Falklands, South America and the South Sea Islands.
