Of Dampier

William Dampier’s A New Voyage Round the World is now available in a handsome, large-size paperback at only SUS 3. Dover Publications Inc., of Varick Street, New York, have brought it out as an un abridged republication of the Argonaut Press edition of 1927, but with a new introduction by Percy G. Adams. Dampier’s journal was first published in 1697 and its influence on travel literature was immense. This new reprint is an extremely clear reproduction and is issued as part of Dover’s Great Books of Travel series.
