Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Homeward Bound, Vol. 1 of 3: Or the Chase, a Tale of the Sea
Most of our readers will propably know that all which appears in a New York journal is not necessarily as true as the Gospel. As some slight deviations from the facts accident ally occur, though doubtless at very long in tervals, it should not be surprising that they sometimes omit circumstances that are quite as veracious as anything they do actually utter to the world. No argument, therefore, can justly be urged against the incidents of this story, on account of the circumstance of their not being embodied in the regular marine news of the day.
