One of two English editions published in the same year. The other edition, published by J. Johnson in 3 volumes with less plates, is supposed to have slightly preceded this John Stockdale edition. La Perouse was commissioned by King Louis XVI to expand on Cook's discoveries in the Pacific. "The narrative of the enterprising but ill-fated Perouse, is full of interest in all portions, but his relations of the peculiarities he observed in the natives of the north-west 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).

No news had been received for three years from the Comte de la Perouse expedition so a two-ship search and exploration party was organised and set out in 1791. "Proceeding via the Cape of Good Hope to Tasmania, extensive investigations of its coastline were made, New Caledonia, the Solomon Islands, the Admiralty Islands, Tonga, New Britain and other groups were visited, but although most searching inquiries were made, no trace of the missing navigator was found. The crews of the ships suffered greatly from scurvy, and many men were lost from this cause and from the unhealthy climate of Java, where a protracted stay was made. The expedition made several important contributions to geographical knowledge, and the investigations of the naturalists into the productions of countries visited were of special value." (Ferguson).
