Edition Notes

All atlases are shelved in folio section.

Pt. 4 of Historique never printed or incorporated in other parts. Several sources claim Botanical portion not published until 1830 but this is inconclusive.

Library's set corresponds to B.M. set. We are probably lacking Observations magnétiques portion, Météorologie, and Recherches sur les langues? Some may have not been published.

Uranie with a crew of 125 explored Australia, Hawaiian Islands, Tonga, and Tierra del Fuego ... when the Uranie was shipwrecked it was replaced by Physicienne which visited Rio de Janiero. Cf. Hill, Jonathan A., The Hill collection of Pacific voyages, p. 7.

Includes indexes.

Historique atlas signed on most plates: "A. Pellion delin. Forget sculp." or "... J.S. Arago gravé par Lerouge et Forget."

Zoologie atlas signed on many plates: "P. Oudart Pint. Coutant sculpt." or "A. Prévost pinxt. Coutant sculpt."

Botanique atlas: 120 leaves of plates, 22 text. Plates not signed. They were designed and engraved by A. Poiret.

Botanical determinations were done by Jacque Étienne Gay, Christian Friedrich Schwaegrichen, Jean Baptiste George Maris, Jules Néraud, and Charles Gaudichaud-Beaupré.
