Book Description
A Womans Journey Round the World By Ida Pfeiffer, 1850 The public received very favourably my plain unvarnished account of "A Voyage to the Holy Land, and to Iceland and Scandinavia." Emboldened by their kindness, I once more step forward with the journal of my last and most considerable voyage, and I shall feel content if the narration of my adventures procures for my readers only a portion of the immense fund of pleasure derived from the voyage by THE AUTHORESS.

Book Description
Excerpt from Lady's Second Journey Round the World: From London to the Cape of Good Hope, Borneo, Java, Sumatra, Celebes, Ceram, the Moluccas, Etc., California, Panama, Peru, Ecuador, and the United States To the Americans, also, I am deeply indebted for many kind attentions, and for free passages in their ships and magnificent steamers. In no country, Dutch India alone excepted, did I receive from the inhabitants more marks of distinction than from the citizens of the United States; and from the bottom of my heart I thank them.

The Voyage of the Vega Round Asia and Europe, Vol. 1 of 2

Pages : 566
Book Description
Excerpt from The Voyage of the Vega Round Asia and Europe, Vol. 1 of 2: With a Historical Review of Previous Journeys Along the North Coast of the Old World In the work now published I have, along with the sketch of the voyage of the Vega round Asia and Europe of the natural conditions of the north coast of Siberia of the animal and vegetable life prevailing there, and of the peoples with whom we came in contact in the course of our journey, endeavoured to give a review, as complete as space permitted, of previous exploratory voyages to the Asiatic Polar Sea. It would have been very ungrateful on my part if I had not referred at some length to our predecessors, who with indescribable struggles and difficulties - and generally with the sacrifice of health and life - paved the way along which we advanced, made possible the victory we achieved. In this way besides the work itself has gained a much-needed variety, for nearly all the narratives of the older North-East voyages contain in abundance what a sketch of our adventures has not to offer; for many readers perhaps expect to find in a book such as this accounts of dangers and misfortunes of a thousand sorts by land and sea.
