| Publisher Description: In 1838, Joseph and Henry Bullar set out on a voyage from England to spend seven months in the Azores. This extraordinary journey led them to the islands of S. Miguel, Faial, Pico, S. Jorge, Flores, and Corvo. Wittily written, the charming account of these travels is most endearing to modern readers, giving accurate descriptions of the customs, religion, education, trade, and agriculture of the bygone Azorean society. |
