Turnbull was the business manager of the expedition. Though the voyage was a financial failure, it did obtain interesting information about various South Sea Islands, such as Norfolk Island, Tahiti, Hawaii, and the Tonga Islands, and made the discovery of the Margaret, Phillips, and Holt islands in the Tuamotu Archipelago. Phillips Island was named for the publisher Sir Richard Phillips. They also visited Brazil and South Africa.The American edition is very scarce" - Hill.
