Hardcover in Dustjacket. Zustand: FINE. WEST AUSTRALIANA ÂMaritime Aboriginal Exploration -First Edition.

Commencing during the reign of Louis XII when the first French exploratory mission went out to challenge the monopoly of Spain and Portugal, the story continues through the years of the ancien regime, the revolutionary and Napoleonic periods and the Bourbon restoration period down to 1826 when Britain annexed western Australia, putting an end to French opportunities there.Detailed account of all French expeditions to W.A. based on contemporary accounts and documents; includes numerous references to contact with Aborigines with reproductions of many sketches and paintings of Aboriginal camps and activities.
