Captain Musgrave's account of being a castaway on the Auckland Islands in 1864 is a truly inspiring story.
This first New Zealand edition of his book dates to 1943 when it was picked up by A.H. and A.W. Reed. The book was first published in England in 1866. This copy is in good condition for such a scarce volume.
We also publish this title in our New Zealand Heritage Series as a paperback so that Musgrave's story is still affordable to the average reader.
