Besides providing a wealth of contemporary factual information, diligently researched and presented in a remarkably lucid manner, this book is full of human interest: the braving of incredible dangers, the enduring of great hardships, and devastating storms; contacts with cannibals, beachcombers, and avaricious traders; polygamy, debauchery, and tribal wars, all portrayed with "you-were-there" vividness.
