Incidents Of A Whaling Voyage by Francis Allyn Olmsted is a non-fiction book that chronicles the author's experiences on a whaling voyage in the mid-19th century.

The second part of the book focuses on the author's observations of the scenery, manners, and customs of the Sandwich and Society Islands, as well as the work of the missionaries stationed there. Throughout the book, Olmsted provides vivid descriptions of the people and places he encounters, offering readers a unique glimpse into the world of whaling and the Pacific Islands during this time period. With its engaging narrative style and rich historical detail, Incidents Of A Whaling Voyage is a fascinating read for anyone interested in maritime history, exploration, and adventure.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
