This is an account of a voyage to the East Indies (1690-1691) under command of the French naval officer Abraham Duquesne-Guiton. In 1690 a fleet of six ships was despatched under Duquesne-Guiton to rescue the Siam mission and to pick up company goods stored in India. The Siam enterprise had met with disaster due to the political upheavals in Siam during 1688. During this voyage the fleet visited Cape Verde, Madagascar, Pondicherry and Ceylon. After sailing along the coasts of southern India and attacking a few places, the ships returned to France in 1691 via America (the islands Ascension and Martinique) with a valuable cargo. The author describes in detail the people, the difficulties encountered during the voyage, the battles with the English and the Dutch, and gives observations on the fauna, etc.
