Item description from seller

All original 22 page soft cover stapled 22 x 30 cm (Images 1 & 2). With four monochrome portraits 22 x 30 cm loosely inserted, (images 3, 4 & 5). [Prince Lee Boo or Lebu, 1764 – 1784, was the second son of Abba Thulle (Ibedul), the ruler of Koror in the Pelew Islands, now called Palau. Prince Lee Boo was one of the first people from the Pacific Islands to visit Great Britain. When the China trader Antelope, on a voyage to China for the East India Company, was wrecked on the island of Oroolong in Western Palau in 1783, its survivors, including Captain Henry Wilson, spent three months on Palau. When the survivors were finally rescued, Captain Wilson agreed to take Lee Boo to London to acquire more knowledge about Europe]. Scarce.
