During the course of an expedition around the world in the corvette Favorite ... Laplace visited the Bay of Islands, where he and his officers carried out detailed scientific work ... their observations of the land and its native inhabitants. Professor Sinclair analyses the expedition's visit in detail, providing a translation of Laplace's own account, and identifying almost all of the geographic features which subsequently appeared on the French charts.
