The plates include maps, city plans, views, life and costume scenes, portraits. The plates are engraved by Delahays, Leparmentier, Desbruslin, Bailleuil. The important maps are by Royal geographer Jean Baptiste Bourguignon d'Anville (1697-1782), considered the best cartographer of his time. Based on surveys conducted by French Jesuits at the behest of the Emperor Kang Hsiand, the work constitutes the first scientific mapping of China and forms the most important cartographic record of the region from the eighteenth century. The work also contains the first separate printed map of Korea and the first detailed survey of Tibet. The first volume of Du Halde's history comprises a general description of China, describing each province as well as each historical dynasty; the second volume encompasses government, law, commerce, art, literature, etc.; the third volume treats religion and science; the final volume expands the work to include neighboring regions (Mongolia, Tibet, Korea, etc,) and with accounts of late 17th- century expeditions. Within the final volume (pp.452-458) appears "Relation succinte du voyage du capitaine Beering dans la Sibérie" - the first published account of Bering's first expedition through the straits that now bear his name. The text is accompanied by an attractive map, titled "Carte des pays traversees par le Capne. Beering depuis la ville de Tobolsk jusqu' Kamtschatka," considered the first printed map of any portion of present-day Alaska (i.e. St. Lawrence Island).
