Product Description

Witty, charming, and fiercely intelligent, Louis-Antoine Comte de Bougainville (1729–1811) managed, in the course of a long life, to play a part in nearly every facet of eighteenth-century life and culture. Storms and Dreams is a lively, authoritative recounting of Bougainville's adventures and achievements, which ranged from seamanship and soldiering to mathematics and navigation. Dunmore follows Bougainville from the French and Indian War, during which he commanded a unit in the defense of Quebec City, to his circumnavigation of the globe in 1766. During that trip, he became one of the first Westerners to visit Tahiti; on his return, he published a book about the island that contributed greatly to Tahiti's lasting reputation as a paradise of noble savages. In his last years, Bougainville served in the senate under Napoleon and was made a member of the Legion of Honor.
The first biography of Bougainville in English, Storms and Dreams opens a window to a remarkable eighteenth-century life—and to the greater world of the Enlightenment.

Editorial Review

Product Description
This volume provides an English translation of "The Pacific Journal of Louis-Antoine de Bougainville". Although Bougainville published an account of his voyage in 1771, and there had been wide interest and controversy in Europe following reports of his reception in Tahiti and life on the island, the journal itself was not published until 1977. This volume is published with extensive editorial notes and a full explanatory introduction. The journals of other participants in the expedition are included. The "Pacific Journal" follows Bougainville's progress across the Pacific and northwards via the Soloman Islands and New Guinea, endeavouring to complete the inadequate charts of the time and leaving his name to a number of features, the best known of which is Bougainville Island. ...

Aus Wikipedia. Nicht dargestellt. Auszug: Armand de Vignerot du Plessis (13 March 1696 - 8 August 1788) was a French soldier, diplomat and statesman. Joining the army, he participated in three major wars and eventually rose to the rank of Marshal of France. He was the son of Armand Jean de Vignerot du Plessis, Duke of Richelieu, who in turn was a great-nephew of the prominent French statesman, Cardinal de Richelieu who had dominated France in the early Seventeenth century. Louis François Armand de Vignerot du Plessis was born in Paris. Louis XIV of France was his godfather. In his early days, he was thrice imprisoned in the Bastille: in 1711 at the instance of his stepfather, in 1716 in consequence of a duel, and in 1719 for his share in the Cellamare Conspiracy of Giulio Alberoni against Philippe II, Duke of Orléans, the regent for Louis XV of France. Apart from his reputation as a man of exceptionally loose morals, he attained, in spite of a deplorably defective education, distinction as a diplomat and general. As the French ambassador to the court of the Holy Roman Emperor, Charles VI, in Vienna from 1725 to 1729, he negotiated in 1727 the preliminaries of peace. In 1733-1734, he served in a Rhine campaign during the War of the Polish Succession. The following decade during the War of the Austrian Succession he fought with distinction at Dettingen and Fontenoy, where he directed the grapeshot upon the Brit...http://booksllc.net/?l=de ...
