Of course I knew, without being told, that there were peculiar difficulties and dangers in it, a long way over and above those which attend all voyages. It must not be supposed that I was afraid to face them; but, in my opinion a man has no manly motive or sustainment in his own breast for facing dangers--by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
