Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Voyages and Travels, in the Years 1809, 1810, and 1811: Containing Statistical, Commercial, and Miscellaneous Observations on Gibraltar, Sardinia, Sicily, Malta, Serigo, and Turkey
This Work is part of a design which I had formed, of giving such an account of the Countries conne'cted with the Mediterranean, as would tend to familiarise them to the British Public. It will appear sufficiently evident, in man}r places, that a great part has been printed from the original Notes. I am not aware that this will be regarded as a fault, although it may expose me to the animadversions of verbal criticism. But I ought to apologise for publishing, unamplified, a number of remarks, which were noted down, as hints for dissertations. I was apprehensive that my Book would have been enlarged, without being aug mented with information and I would rather that it: were thought defective in disquisition, than deficient in facts which suggest re?ections.
