[Public Domain Review] Labillardiere and his Relation

[Public Domain Review]

When the French explorer Lapérouse went missing, a search voyage was
put together to retrace his steps around the islands of Australisia.
On the mission was the naturalist Jacques Labillardière who published
a book in 1800 of his experiences. Edward Duyker, author of Citizen
Labillardière: A Naturalist’s Life in Revolution and Exploration
(1755-1834), explores the impact of his pioneering work.
