Excerpt from Travels in the Sandwich and Society Islands
As I am not at liberty to suppose that any one must necessarily be acquainted with the earlier sections of a narrative to which this volume forms a continuation, it is proper to inform the reader that the following chapters comprise a third, but distinct, part of an account of travels which I have previously brought up to my departure from the coast of Kamtschatka on board the good whaler-ship Josephine, bound on a voyage intended to embrace a period of whale-fishing in a lower latitude, and to terminate at the Sandwich Islands.
