Yves-Joseph de Kerguelen-Trémarec
Rear-Admiral
Yves Joseph Marie de Kerguelen-Trémarec
(13 February 1734 – 3 March 1797) was a
French Navy
officer and slave trader. He discovered the
Kerguelen Islands
in 1772 during his
first expedition
to the southern
Indian Ocean
. Welcomed as a hero after his voyage and first discovery, Kerguelen fell out of favour after his
second voyage
and was cashiered in 1775 for violating Navy regulations. He was rehabilitated during the
French Revolution
. Kerguelen authored books about expeditions and about French
naval battles of the American Revolutionary War
