No Binding. Condition: Very Good. Framed. The first engraved view of Australia's east coast printed in 1773, in the official accounts of James Cook's first voyage and one of only a handful of c.18th images to depict the Endeavour. The Endeavour a converted collier, was chosen by Cook because of it's flat-bottomed design which allowed it to sail in shallow waters and to be beached for loading and unloading. Here it is shown careened for repairs near present day Cooktown. On Cook's seminal chart of the east coast he gives the name, The Labyrinth, to the maze of reefs now named the Great Barrier Reef. Cook's own account of the Endeavour striking the reef 10 June 1770; 'before ten, we had twenty and one twenty fathom, and this depth continuing, the gentlemen left the deck in great tranquillity, and went to bed; but a few minutes before eleven, the water fhallowed at once from twenty to feventeen fathom, and before the lead could be caft again, the fhip ftruck, and remained immoveable, except by the heaving of the furge, that beat her against the craggs of the rock upon which she lay.'. Cook Journal I, 3, 545- In the morning of the 17th, though the wind was still fresh, we ventured to weigh, and push in for the harbour; but in doing this we twice run the ship aground. In the morning of Monday the 18th, a stage was made from the ship to the shore, which was so bold that she floated at twenty feet distance. Cook, Journals I, 3, 556-7. The next morning we went early to work, and by four o clock in the afternoon had got out all the coals, cast the moorings loose, and warped the ship a little higher up the harbour to a place, which I thought most convenient for laying her ashore in order to stop the leak. .At eight o clock, it being high-water, I hauled her bow ashore; but kept her stern afloat, because I was afraid if neiping her; it was however necessary to lay the whole of her as near the ground as possible.

12, LVI, 344; [4], 309, [1 blank] pp.First edition of the French translation of the best of the unofficial accounts of Cook's first voyage, followed by an extensive summary of Cook's second and third voyages which takes up most of the second volume. Sydney Parkinson (1745?-1771) was engaged by Sir Joseph Banks to accompany him in the Endeavour to the South Seas, as natural history draughtsman. He made numerous botanical drawings as well as landscapes, portraits of local chiefs etc. "Banks spoke highly of his "unbounded industry" in making for him a much larger collection of drawings than he anticipated. His observations, too, were valuable, and the vocabularies of South Sea languages given in the journal are of great interest" (Hill).Parkinson died on January 26, 1771, on the homeward voyage, and was buried at sea. By the terms of his will, his brother Stanfield claimed all of his drawings and proceeded to make preparations, with the assistence of Dr. Kenrick, for a rival publication to Hawkesworth's authorized account of the voyage. Hawkesworth succeeded in court in delaying the Parkinson publication till his own edition would have been published, and he further excluded mention of Parkinson in his account. Before the actual publication in 1773, Stanfield Parkinson died of insanity. The present French translation adds an extensive introduction by the translator Captain Henri and the extensive summary of Cook's second and third voyages as added to the 1784 reissue of the original English edition. With the bookplate of Franz Pollack-Parnau (1903-1981), descendant of a Jewish industrialist family from Vienna, who accumulated an impressive library in the family palace on Schwarzenbergplatz, library stamps of the Verein Humanitas from Vienna and a related owner's inscription on both half-titles. Some spots throughout and the spines restored, but generally in good condition.l Beddie 715; Forbes 277; Kroepelien 946; Sabin 58789; cf. Hill 1308-1309.

First Edition
Two volumes, octavo, six folding engraved plates after Parkinson, a handsome set in contemporary French mottled calf, flat spines gilt, double red and tan morocco labels. First French edition, first issue: the artist's account of Cook's first voyage and the discovery of eastern Australia. Translated by C. Henri from the 1784 English edition, it also contains material from later voyagers updating the account, including the experiences of the Forsters on the second voyage. This is the octavo issue noted by Kroepelien as preceding the otherwise identical quarto of the same year. Parkinson had been employed in 1767 by Sir Joseph Banks, who thought so highly of his work that he arranged for the young man to join him on Cook's first voyage. When the expedition's draughtsman Alexander Buchan died at Tahiti, Parkinson was called on to take over all of the topographical work, completing some 1300 sketches, quite apart from compiling vocabularies in Tahiti and New Holland. At the end of the voyage, en route from Batavia to the Cape of Good Hope, he died of a fever, and after the return of the Endeavour ownership of his manuscripts and drawings was disputed: Banks considered that they were his, while Parkinson's brother Stanfield claimed them under the provisions of his brother's will. When Hawkesworth learned of the impending publication of this work, he got an injunction to delay its appearance until some time after his official account, and, despite having used Parkinson's work extensively, retaliated by deliberately omitting Parkinson's name from the narrative: even the botanical illustrations in the official account have no credit to the artist. Some of the bibliographical history of this work is quite complex. An extended note by Rolf du Rietz in the Kroepelien catalogue explains that this octavo issue, although textually identical to a quarto issue published the same year by the same publisher, is actually the genuine first issue (du Rietz demonstrates from an error in the signatures that the quarto was re-imposed). Du Rietz knew the octavo only from the copy in the University of Oslo, although no complete census of the two issues has been attempted. A note in O'Reilly-Reitman suggests - as if we needed more complexity - that the number of plates is uncertain, as they examined copies with any number between five and eight; nonetheless, six plates is the standard collation. . A few leaves a little foxed; a very good copy.
