Synopsis

Excerpt from The Antipodes and Round the World: Or, Travels in Australia, New Zealand, Ceylon, China, Japan, and California

Having been fortunate enough to meet with so much favour at the hands of the public that a Second Edition of this work has been called for, I am glad of the opportunity of correcting some errors and misprints which occurred in the First Edition, and of expressing my thanks to those critics who have - all of them mercifully, most of them kindly - reviewed my work. It is a cause of regret, that not being in England I am unable to avail myself as fully of their hints and criticisms as I might otherwise have done.
