In the tradition of the French Neptunes, the last French commission at the beginning of the 19th century. The French Pilot, testimony of twenty campaigns at sea led by Beautemps-Beaupré, studies all the western and northern coasts of France from Bayonne to Dunkirk. These documents contain no less than 150 maps and plans, 279 views and 184 tables of high and low tides, forming a set of 613 separate works which are treasures for navigation. This work is still admired by the maritime world and, in the words of Frédéric Chassériau, "will remain the finest title of contemporary hydrography in the eyes of posterity."
