Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Lady´s Captivity: Among Chinese Pirates in the Chinese Seas Write, then, and fear nothing." It was thus, Madame, that you persuaded me, and it is thus that I have obeyed you. I have lived, while writing, amid the scenes and sufferings of the past. I have once again experienced all the terrors of captivity - once again been tossed by tempests, blinded by incendiary flames, and threatened with uplifted sabres. Inasmuch as these things have moved me by the mere remembrance, so I trust they may interest others in the mere recital. They will at least bear the impress of emotion and truth. I place myself, Madame, under your patronage, and beg that you will accept this expression of my respect and affection.
