Two near fine fold-out pieces in Volume I: one table of daily coordinates placing the location of the Essex and one map of the Galapagos Islands. (Hill, 239) (Howes P484) A clean, well-presenting example. Hill considers this second edition to be "the best edition and only complete edition," including Porter's Preface defending the first edition of the journal, numerous fold out maps, and the full narrative of Porter's experience throughout the War of 1812. This journal also served as a source piece for Herman Melville's Typee (1846).
