Excerpt from The Cruise of the Pearl Round the World: With an Account of the Operations of the Naval Brigade in India
The following Narrative is selected from a Journal which was originally written without the slightest intention of committing it to the press; but, on the representation of several friends, I have ventured to publish that portion of it which treats chiefly of the services of the "Pearl"s" Naval Brigade in India, and which I thought would be interesting to the public; and trust that the truth of the statements may so far conciliate the opinion of the reader, that he will forgive its other deficiences.
