Editor's Note:
Buku ini merupakan kumpulan catatan perjalanan para petualang Prancis yang mampir ke Indonesia sejak abad ke-16 sampai ke-20. Catatan perjalanan mereka menyingkap kondisi Indonesia yang berbeda dengan pandangan kolonial Belanda yang mendominasi penulisan sejarah Indonesia. Kisah yang dipaparkan dalam buku ini misalnya cerita desersi sastrawan terkemuka dunia Arthur Rimbaud dari tangsi Belanda di Salatiga; kisah dari pulau Timor tentang perburuan buaya yang berbobot sekurangnya satu ton oleh zoolog Fran§ois PÃÂron dan Lesueur, kelak Direktur Museum Le Havre; kisah sukses dua pangeran Makassar menjadi perwira angkatan laut Raja Louis ke XIV; dan duka cerita seorang pangeran Timor yang diperdaya seorang padri Dominikan sampai terlunta-lunta dan mati mengenaskan di Prancis. Sebagian bahan penulisan buku ini diambil dari telaah ilmiah sumber-sumber primer yang terdapat dalam arsip pemerintah dan pernah terbit di majalah Archipel, catatan perjalanan wartawan, laporan ekspedisi ilmiah, ataupun tuturan pandangan mata pelancong yang menyambangi Nusantara. Tak heran bila kisah-kisah itu terasa segar bahkan tidak jarang kocak. Semua kisah dalam buku ini diperkaya dengan hampir 300 ilustrasi, sehingga suasana dan peristiwanya makin terasa hidup.
