French Explorers in the Pacific, by John Dunmore (17 May 1974) This book tells of French explorers in the Pacific, including Bougainville and Kergulen, among others. Kergulen Island, an uninhabited (at least by indigenous folk) island in the Indian Ocean, has always fascinated me. I have also during this time read much of the White House-edited tapes released by the White House on Apr 30. The tapes show that Nixon was extremely unanxious to have the truth about Watergate come out. I said: I expect Nixon to be out of office before the end of the year.

"The story of French exploration in Pacific waters has never been told in full. To reach back to the origins of French interest in the Mer du Sud, the author has made use of unpublished material from French national archives, records of trading concerns, reports from privateers, logbooks of old and forgotten explorers. This work is planned to present a complete panorama of French voyages of exploration from the closing years of the seventeenth to the middle of the nineteenth century. The first volume takes the story from the origins to the end of the eighteenth century ... second volume will continue it from the beginning of the nineteenth century to the 1840's when exploration gives way to political activities ..." -- Inside front cover, Volume I.
