About This Book

A first-person travel memoir recounts a transpacific voyage and an extended stay in the Philippines with stops in Hawaii, Japan, China and other Asian ports. The narrator provides vivid travel sketches of harbors, streets, temples, gardens, markets and tropical flora and fauna. Close observations focus on local customs, domestic life, weddings, church festivals, street parades and popular amusements. Practical chapters examine agriculture, minerals, market trade, and animal life alongside accounts of medical practices encountered, including osteopathy. Interwoven are personal episodes detailing involvement with scouting volunteers, a coastal shipwreck, political and civic events, and the practical trials of arranging a return home.
