Description
Among the voyages of exploration and surveying in the late 18th century, that of Alejandro Malaspina best represents the high ideals and scientific interests of the Enlightenment. In July 1789 he sailed from CA¡diz in the purpose-built corvettes, Descubierta and Atrevida. On board the vessels were scientists and artists and an array of the latest surveying and astronomical instruments. This volume of a series of three contains Malaspinas diario or journal from 31 July 1789 to 14 December 1790, newly translated into English, with substantial introduction and commentary.
