Copper-plate engraved map by Walker showing four maps on one sheet, the islands in the South Pacific: Friendly Islands; Sandwich Isles; Society & Harvey Isles; Eimeo & Tahiti. The author was a British Quaker missionary who ".set sail from the Thames on 13 Nov. 1833 in the Henry Freeling, a cutter of 101 tons, purchased and provisioned by private members of the Society of Friends. The ship arrived off Hobart Town on 10 Sept. 1834, and left in December, conveying James Blackhouse and George Washington Walker to Port Jackson and Norfolk Island on her way to Tahiti. During four or five months spent in that island Wheeler held many services, sometimes on board his ship, with the queen and the chiefs, the missionaries, English residents, and the crews of vessels in the harbour. Queen Pomare remitted the Henry Freeling's port dues because Wheeler's was ?a visit of love, and not a trading voyage? She again came to his meetings on the island of Eimeo. Christmas day 1835 was spent in the Sandwich Islands, and the first Quakers' meeting held there, attended by native chiefs, governor, and the queen. At Honolulu the Henry Freeling stayed some time, also at Rarotonga, the Friendly Islands, and Tongataboo. She made the Bay of Islands about a month before Christmas 1836, and on reaching Sydney in January 1837 was sold and the ship's company discharged. The ship's course was entirely without pre-arrangement, and directed from day to day by Wheeler's spiritual intimations. In a letter to a friend he illustrates his sense of divine protection by saying that he has been ashamed even in landing in canoes through the broken surf to use a life-belt which a friend had given him on leaving." (DNB). Wheeler also published a US edition, however, withouth the map. Ferguson 3537. J & C Walker (map) (illustrator).…
