A Voyage of Discovery to the North Pacific Ocean
Author: William Robert Broughton
Publisher: London : Printed for T. Cadell and W. Davies
ISBN:
Category : Discoveries in geography
Languages : en
Pages : 448
Book Description
Broughton, commander of the Providence, was ordered to the northwest coast of America to rejoin Vancouver, sailing via Australia (1795), Tahiti, and Hawaii (1796). Missing Vancouver he sailed to Monterey, California, then again to Hawaii and Japan, surveying the coast of Asia and Japan for 4 years. "Broughton's survey of the Northwest Coast of America was of great importance, and Great Britain based her 1846 claim to the Oregon Territory on this survey." In Hawaii he visited Kealakekua, Lahaina, Honolulu, Waimea, Kauai, and Niihau, and his narrative of this is particularly important for its account of Kamehameha's conquests of the islands and for his designs for Kauai. There are two issues of this work. One in Bishop Museum Library lacks the list of plates at the end of the text, as well as the plates and most of the maps, and "appears never to have had them. Presumably this was a later (or remainder?) issue"--Forbes, David W. Hawaiian national bibliography.

Book Description
From Streeter: This is the classic account of Mackenzie's journey from Fort Chipeway on Lake Athabasca, here called Lake of the Hills, down the river which bears his name to the sea and back in 1789. Even more important is the journal of the journey from the "New Establishment" on the Peace River to the Pacific Ocean (actually to "Mackenzie's Rock" on Dean Channel), and the return to Fort Chipeway. This journey marked the first crossing of the continent by white men.
