Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Works of Edmund Burke, Vol. 9 of 9
With regard to the foreign settlements, recourse was had to the best printed accounts of travelers and others; and, in some points, to private information from intelligent traders. The materials for the foreign settlements are far from being as perfect, or as much to be depended upon, as we could wish. It was very seldom that I could venture to transcribe any thing directly from them without some addition or some corrective.
