To this end, Mr. Teller has made a permanent and major contribution." --New York Times Book Review "An imposingly handsome omnibus edition..." --The New Yorker Includes: - Rescue of Some Gilbert Islanders - Voyage of the Liberdade - Aquidneck Correspondence - Sailing Alone the World - Voyage of the Destroyer from New York to Brazil
