Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Voyage to the Celestial Country: Being the Reel in a Bottle, From the Manuscripts of an Old Salt; An Allegory
Many books of thrilling interest have been written, describing the innumerable perils and hardships of a sailor's life; but we have never met with one that attempted to surround them, from the beginning to the end, with the lights from Eternity to Time, and the lessons from Time to Eternity. The effort at least, is sincere, and by the divine blessing may not be in vain.
