A Voyage Round the World
"In the annals of Britain's naval history Anson's voyage of 1740-4 holds a celebrated place. The first formal attempt by a naval expedition to circumnavigate the world, it affords a striking story of hardship, disaster, mutiny, and heroism. Only one of Anson's squadron, Centurion, returned to England with its mission accomplished... The authorized account of the voyage was published in 1748 under the name of Richard Walker, chaplain of the Centurion... In this edition the text is printed in full and is accompanied by notes containing information taken from other contemporary accounts of the voyage, or from documents in British and Spanish archives"-- Jacket flap.
