Hardcover. First edition. Octavo. Cloth and printed papercovered boards. 85pp. Rear hinge neatly repaired, small spot of erosion to the paper at the bottom of the front board, a nice, very good copy. An almost certainly privately printed, detailed account of a cruise by the U.S.S. *Ticonderoga* beginning in 1878, and which visited most of Africa and Asia.
