Synopsis

""An Account of the Wreck of H.M. Sloop Osprey: With the Encampment of Her Crew, and Their March Across the Island of New Zealand"" is a historical account written by Henry Moon in 1858. The book describes the events surrounding the wreck of the British naval vessel, H.M. Sloop Osprey, off the coast of New Zealand in 1843. The crew of the Osprey were forced to abandon ship and establish a camp on the island, enduring harsh conditions and hostile encounters with the Maori people. The book details the crew's struggles to survive and their eventual march across the island to safety. Moon's account provides a vivid portrayal of the challenges faced by early explorers and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity.Blended With Moral And Scriptural Illustrations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Leopold is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. This means that we have checked every single page in every title, making it highly unlikely that any material imperfections – such as poor picture quality, blurred or missing text - remain. When our staff observed such imperfections in the original work, these have either been repaired, or the title has been excluded from the Leopold Classic Library catalogue.
