Excerpt from A New Voyage Round the World in the Years 1823, 24, 25, and 26, Vol. 1 of 2The ¿attering requisitions of those readers who found amusement in the narrative of my former voyage, independently of its scientific details, form an incentive to my present publi cation. All mere nautical minutiae, which might be deemed tedious, with the exception of such as were indispensable, have been omitted. Va rious contingencies have delayed the appearance of these Volumes, but I still hope they will not have altogether lost the charm of novelty.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
