| Summary | Description: Notes made by Gabriel de Bory for Abbe de Rochon, who published Crozet's account of the Marion du Fresne expedition and Du Fresne's death in 1772. Lists inconsistencies and other rectifications to ensure that Crozet's account would agree with that provided by Chevalier Duclesmeur, who took over command of the expedition after Du Fresne's death. The main point of difference appears to have been as to whether or Crozet was the de facto leader of the expedition.Includes typed translation and commentary on the document by the vendor. |
