"Bellinghausen's voyage of 1819-1821 was aimed primarily at exploring areas of the Antarctic left in some doubt by James Cook's great voyages of exploration. Bellingshausen followed Cook to New Zealand, dropping anchor in the Sounds close to where the Englishman had refitted his ship and rested his men. There, the Russians met Maoris as yet little affected by the arivals of Europeans and -- even more important -- Maoris whose settlement were to be wiped out within a very few years by intertribal warfare. The accounts of Bellinghausen and of his officers ... are here presented for the first time with detailed comments and reproductions of artifacts purchased and taken back to Russia by the expedition." -- Inside front cover.
