The large harbour which they had discovered, was unanimously dedicated to captain Hamelin. This harbour is not so deep, but is much larger than the one to the westward. Our provisions were now nearly expended, and we had not as yet any news of the Geographer. The captain had done every thing that was possible to effect a junction with that ship; he had not neglected to pursue that rigorous discipline prescribed to him by the orders of government and of his commander. There remained no hope of-his falling in'with the Geographer but at the place from which they set out. He determined therefore toreturn thither without further delay. After this determination, we got under way the 4th ofSeptember for Timor, after having passed forty-nine days in the Bay of Sea-dogs, or rather what we took to be a bay, and of which it remains to us to give a general description. After Dirck-Hartighs and Vlaming, the first European who visited the Bay of Sea-dogs, was Capt. Dampier, who in the time he lived, was a skilful navigator. It was to him _that Europe owed its first and only correct notions of these-countries, until the epoch of our expedition. Dampier an chored to the north of the peninsula Peron, which he himself mistook for an island, and gave the name of Shark's Bay (or Bay of Sea-dogs) to all that space comprized between the isles westward and the continent, without having discovered the form or breadth. Can it be wondered at, that after Darnpier, in general so exact in all his labours, should have given the name of a bay to a heap of gults, harbours, and coves, which have only the general...

A bestseller in its day, this three-volume work vividly recounts significant voyages made by Britain's leading navigators. A prominent figure in London cultural life, John Hawkesworth (c.1720-73) was commissioned by the Admiralty to compile, from the captains' journals, the official record of voyages which included James Cook's first journey to the South Pacific. Reissued here is the Dublin edition based on the first printing of 1773; a second edition appeared later in the year. Critical opinion was fierce, however, with Hawkesworth accused of impiety, manipulating the original texts and promoting the sexual freedoms of Pacific islanders. Devastated by these attacks, he died the same year. Later taken aboard the Beagle with Darwin, the work still speaks to scholars and students of nautical exploration. Volume 1 includes accounts of voyages by John Byron, Philip Carteret and Samuel Wallis - notably the latter's discovery of Tahiti.--
