5.0 out of 5 stars
The contrasting achievements of the two navigators thus receive more of an even analysis here,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Encountering Terra Australis: The Australian Voyages of Nicolas Baudin and Matthew Flinders (Hardcover)
College-level collections strong in Australian history and early exploration must have Encountering Terra Australis: The Australian Voyages of Nicolas Baudin and Matthew Flinders. It covers the achievements and encounters of these two navigators at the beginning of the 19th century, differing from competitors in examining the voyage of Baudin, rather than Flinders, to provide a different interpretation, reworking facts from the authors' own translation of Baudin's journals and original sources. The contrasting achievements of the two navigators thus receive more of an even analysis here, using both French and Australian sources to authenticate and correct historical facts.
