Between 1801 and 1803, Baudin and Flinders filled in most of the gaps on the map of what was then New Holland. The voyages were also very important scientifically. Both carried significant collections of flora and fauna home to Europe. The French scientists made invaluable observations on the life and customs of Tasmanian aborigines, while the naturalist Robert Brown in Investigator laid the foundations of Australian botany. Caught up on an increasingly bitter war, the French and British governments gave little recognition to these scientific achievements.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 3rd Edition. Paperback / softback, creased spine, shelf wear, name inside, minor tanning and marks inside. 528 pages 12.7 x 0.3 x 19 centimetres (0.41 kg) '[Anthony Brown's] ingenious interweaving of the tales of these two very different expeditions brings the story of Australia's exploration to life in a riveting and insightful new narrative.' Tim Flannery Amid the Napoleonic Wars, France and Britain launched rival voyages of discovery to the Antipodes. Led by the outstanding naval captains Nicolas Baudin and Mathew Flinders, these expeditions were seen as vital for gathering geographical and scientific knowledge, yet both expeditions ended in personal disaster for their commanders. Drawing extensively on original eye witness accounts, logs and journals, Ill Starred Captains brings to life the tragic histories of the two men for whom 'Fortune had changed seemingly beyond recall, from smiling goddess to right whore.' With a foreword by Tim Flannery, Ill-Starred Captains tells the riveting story of a remarkable competition between two warring colonial nations and provides a major contribution to Australian, British and French history. About the Author Anthony Brown is a historical adviser, a former chief librarian, and an author.
