From the Voyages of La Pérouse who set sail from France in 1785 to continue the discoveries of Captain Cook. He was shipwrecked in 1788 but his narrative, maps, and views survived and were published in 1797. An attractive map with inset. Relief shown pictorially. Inset covers area from Kamchatka to Kanaga in the Aleutians, including the Kommandorskii Islands.

Very good condition. Two watermarks. Faint stains to the upper right and faint waterstain to the centre fold, not affecting the image. Good margins.
