Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Uncle Peregrine, or Annals and Incidents of Romantic Adventure The following narrative has been drawn up by the Editor from the MS. Journal of an old sailor, who, some years ago, completed the great voyage of human life. The original papers exhibit all the marks of having been written in haste. Many of the incidents they contain are described with extreme brevity, and with but little attention to the style or manner requisite to a pleasing story. In the discharge of his duty, therefore, the Editor has found himself compelled, not only to make a selection from the numerous incidents contained in the Journal, but to avail himself, somewhat largely, of his official privilege, by making a variety of alterations, and, as he thinks, improvements, in that portion of the work which is embraced in the following pages. It is his earnest hope that this little volume may prove to the youthful reader at once instructive and interesting.
