Voyage to Australia and the Pacific, 1791-1793: Bruni d'Entrecasteaux by chevalier d' Antoine Raymond Joseph de Bruni Entrecasteaux

Detailed, flawless account of a poorly recognised, yet significant part of Australian history. Backed by thorough and impeccable research (despite using these books extensively, I've only ever found one error in any of Duyker's books - an incorrect digit in a call number in the references!). An invaluable resource.
