Excerpt from Starboard and Port: The Nettie Along Shore
IN a work so unpretending as this a Preface is hardly needed. My book would never have seen the light but for the kindness of friends. They list ened so patiently to my repeated recitals of advent ure that I was tempted to seek a larger audience. I have had three objects in view in elaborating my log: First, the happiness it always gives me to talk about the ocean; second, the hope of giving pleasure to others; and, third, my desire to induce yachtsmen to venture into blue water. If I fail in the last, I shall fall back cheerfully to the other two; and if the sec ond be unattainable, then the pleasure I have had in writing the book remains, and I am quite content.
I desire to give public expression of my gratitude to the Rev. M. Harvey, of St. John's, Newfoundland, who sent me maps and public documents concern ing an island which offers special inducements to the angler, the hunter, and the explorer - which island I hope to visit some day, when I shall be under still greater obligations for his kindness; also to the Masvi Preface.
