Detailed Product Description
Full Title: A Narrative Of Four Voyages: The South Sea, North And South Pacific Ocean, Chinese Sea, Ethiopic And Southern Atlantic Ocean, Indian And Antarctic Ocean From The Year 1822 To 1831 Kessinger Publishing, not dated c. 2005. 500 pp, b/w illustrations. Facsimile reprint softcover. Fine. Account of an American sailor who went to sea in 1811, was first mate on the 'Wasp' in the Antarctic in 1821, and later in 1822-23 as her Captain, during which he made a controversial survey of East Antarctica waters, claiming to have reached 70 14 S in the Weddell Sea and reporting new land 'New South Greenland' (later disproved). He visited Islas Diego Ramirez, Tierra del Fuego, and the Falkland Islands, then Georgia; Bouvetoya, where he landed and took 172 Fur seal skins; Iles Kerguelen and the South Sandwich Islands. This book described his sea adventures, his discoveries, and shipwrecks; however, much to his dismay, many of the reports in his book were proven false and he was marked as a fraud. And while much of his work is disputed, one such thing that is not is that Herman Melville is thought to have based themes of his book Moby Dick.
