Pages are virtually pristine and intact except for light age toning. Covers are virtually pristine and intact except for a few small marks on front and back. A Fine copy. This is No. XLV in The Publications of the Champlain Society series. Transcribed and translated by Wessie Tipping Lamb. Edited with an Introduction and Notes by W. Kaye Lamb. According to the Introduction, this volume contains the first unadorned publication of Gabriel Franchere's Journal of a Voyage on the North West Coast of North America (also known as Narrative of a Voyage on the North West Coast of North America). Included herein are English and French translations of Franchere's journal. Franchere' s journal is an invaluable record that not only documented his own life but also the historical events of his time. He notes activities in the fur trading industry, interactions between white settlers and Indigenous communities, and life in Fort Astoria. Notably, his journal includes an insightful account of Astoria during a three-year period in which John Jacob Astor was establishing a fur trading depot there at the mouth of the Columbia River. Included are addenda from the earlier French 1820 edition and English translation of 1854. Gabriel Franchere (1786-1863) was a French-Canadian author and explorer. He was employed for some time at Astor's American Fur Company and its subsidiary, Pacific Fur Company, at Astoria. W. Kaye Lamb describes Franchere as an industrious employee and a capable writer. Franchere was from Montreal and traveled to New York City in the summer of 1810 to disembark for Astoria aboard the Tonquin. His journal begins about from when he left for New York and concludes with his return to his home in Montreal in August 1814. The Tonquin reached Hawai'i in February 1811 and arrived at the Columbia River in March 1811. Franchere writes of his experiences on this voyage and at Astoria. He also briefly writes about the ill-fated voyage of the Tonquin when it left Astoria for Vancouver Island to initiate trade with Indigenous tribes. The ship's captain, Jonathan Thorn, mistreated a Tla-o-qui-aht elder which led to a violent massacre. The survivors of the Tonquin intentionally destroyed the ship in response. The only survivor who made it back to Astoria was Joseachal, a Quinault interpreter. Franchere left Astoria when the Pacific Fur Company was sold to the North West Company. The Pacific Fur Company's last activities in Astoria took place about April 1814. Front colophon: "Eight Hundred and Twenty-five Copies of this Volume have been printed for the Champlain Society. Fifty are reserved for Editorial purposes. The remaining Seven Hundred and Seventy-five are supplied only to elected members of the Society and to Subscribing Libraries. This copy is No. [blank].".

All four visited the northwest coast of North America, but weather and circumstances prevented Cook from making more than what Beaglehole calls ' a magnificent, an epoch-making reconnaissance'; La Perouse only touched the coast in a significant way at Yakutat Bay and Lituya Bay, and Malasina's memorable visits were to Yakutat Bay and Nootka Sound. Vancouver, by contrast, surveyed the enormous extent of coast from Lower California to Cook Inlet, and his meticulous survey literally set out on the map of the world the intricacies of Puget Sound and the western coast of mainland Canada. It was an achievement that places him with his mentor, Cook, in the first rank of marine surveyors. As a midshipman Vancouver had been with Cook when he discovered the Sandwich (Hawaiian) Islands in 1778. They attracted his interest, and the attention he devoted to the islands, their inhabitants and their political future when he twice later wintered there will surprise many. This is the first annotated edition of Vancouver's journal as he revised it for publication in 1798. The original manuscript has disappeared, but fortunately no fewer than 25 partial or complete logs or journals by other members of the expedition have survived. These supplement Vancouver's narrative at many points.'.
