Image description

Creator: William Daniell Scale: circa 1:500 000. The borders are graduated for latitude and longitude. Also showing are Pulau Aur and Melaka. Tinted insets show the positions of the ships, explained by text. In 1804 Linois' French squadron waited at the east entrance of the Straits of Malacca for the British East Indiamen laden with cargo from Canton worth eight million pounds. Dance misled Linois into believing that the merchantmen had an escort of formidable naval ships and Linois made his escape after a brief engagement. Napoleon said, 'He has made the French flag the laughing-stock of the Universe'.
