Synopsis
Excerpt from Guide to St. Helena: Descriptive and Historical, With a Visit to Longwood, and Napoleon's Tomb
I think it necessary to explain by way of preface, how it happens that the book should not run on exactly in continuous or consecutive order.
That part of it which I have boldly taken upon myself to call Historical, was written as an introduction to the st. Helena. Calendar for the present year, but, after being printed, was not considered suitable to the decorous gravity.
