Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The journal recounts Admiral Bruny d'Entrecasteaux's 1791 expedition from Revolutionary France to find the missing explorer La Pérouse. Over nearly two years, he navigated challenges, maintaining unity among his ideologically divided crew, which included a cross-dressing woman. His humane and joyful interactions with the peoples of Australia and the Pacific highlight the expedition's significance beyond its rescue mission. Despite not finding La Pérouse and ultimately perishing, d'Entrecasteaux's journey led to important discoveries like the Derwent estuary and the D'Entrecasteaux Channel.
