Publisher Description:
1909. To which is added a newly discovered partial record now first published of The Trial of the Mutineers by whom he and others were abandoned to their death. From Chapter I: If ever a compelling Fate set its grip upon a man and drove him to an accomplishment beside his purpose and outside his thought it was when Henry Hudson-having headed his ship upon an ordered course northeastward-directly traversed his orders by fetching that compass to the southwestward which ended by bringing him into what now is Hudson's River, and which led on quickly to the found of what now is New York.
