Preface.

The Author of the accompanying Narrative is not responsible for its appearance in print. It was not written with a view to its publication, but for the amusement and information of relatives and friends in England, who consider that its truly graphic and eloquent descriptions of those vast and comparatively untrodden solitudes should not perish with the paper on which they were written, but should live in the future in this more permanent form.
