Kidnapping In The South Seas is a historical narrative written by George Palmer. The book is based on the author's personal experience during a three-month cruise on H.M. Ship Rosario in 1871. The story revolves around the kidnapping of a group of islanders by a group of white traders. The author provides a detailed account of the events that led to the kidnapping, the kidnapping itself, and the subsequent rescue mission carried out by the crew of H.M. Ship Rosario. The book also sheds light on the social and cultural norms of the South Seas during that time, and the impact of European colonization on the native populations. Kidnapping In The South Seas is a gripping tale of adventure, bravery, and the struggle for justice in the face of exploitation and oppression. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of the South Seas and the impact of colonialism on indigenous cultures.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
