These plates are the completeillustrations to the 1st French edition of Cook's 1st Voyage to the South Seas to observe the transit of Venus at Tahiti, but resulted in the circumnavigation and exploration of New Zealand, and the discovery of the unknown Eastern Coast of Australia, and the annexation of New Zealand and Australia by Great Britain. Of the three other voyages contained herein, that of Byron's resulted in very little in the way of discovery, but was the fastest circumnavigation accomplished up to that period, 1764-1766. Thevoyage of Wallis resulted in the discovery or re-discovery of Tahiti and the Society Islands, which were, however, annexed by France a few months later. It was performed in the years 1766-1768. Carteret made his voyage inconjunction with Wallis. He rediscovered Santa Cruz and the Solomon Islands, which had not been visited since Mendana left them two hundred years before. Taking a course to the southward of Byron and Wallis he visited Pitcairn Island, the Southern Groups of the Society Islands, discovered the Admirality Islands and the strait between New Britain and New Ireland. His vessel was very small and rotten and he arrived home a year after Wallis. (Beddie 659).

In 1774, when the council, in accordance with their instructions and with a view of developing new sources of trade, was desirous of sending an exploration party in the direction of New Guinea, Forrest offered his services. He sailed in the Tartar, a native boat of about ten tons burden, with 2 English officers and a crew of 18 Malays. He pushed the exploration as far as Geelvink Bay in New Guinea. The voyage was one of examination and enquiry rather than of discovery, and the additions made to geographical knowledge were corrections of detail rather than startling discoveries, butthe tact with which he conducted his intercourse with the natives, and the amount of work done in a small boat, deservedly won him credit as a navigator".
