The first two volumes are the work of the French astronomer Jean Chappe d'Auteroche (1722 69). In 1761 Chappe was ordered by Louis XV, with approval from Catherine II, to undertake an expedition to Siberia to observe the transit of Venus. 'From Paris he reached St Petersburg, then sledged to Tobolsk, where in June 1761 the transit was duly observed. The expedition carried out a large number of scientific measurements en route, and reported on the geography of the region and the customs of its inhabitants' (Howgego C101). His work 'deserves attention for its attractive and accurate engravings, and for its forthright and sometimes provocative descriptions of Russian manners and character' (Hill), which inspired an indignant rebuttal sometimes attributed to Catherine the Great. The third volume contains Chappe's translation of the important description of Kamchatka by the Russian explorer Stepan Krasheninnikov (1713 55), taken from his Russian original of 1755, which contains much material on Alaska and the northwest coast of America. The delightful plates cover customs (e.g. public baths and marriage ceremonies), costumes, local bird life, punishments, religious idols, geology, and experiments with electricity, as well as depicting views of the landscape.Brunet I, 1798; Hill 277.
