The publication of Terre Napoleon (1910) and Laperouse (1912) established his reputation as a historian.

In 1759 he was wounded in the Battle of Quiberon Bay. When he defeated the English frigate Ariel in the West Indies he was promoted to Commodore. After the Treaty of Paris, La Pérouse was appointed in 1785 by Louis XVI to lead an expedition around the world. During his travels he visited Alaska, Hawaii, Japan Australia and various islands
