Excerpt from The Cruise of the Midge, Vol. 1 of 2I had no small difficulty in carrying this point, as the extreme insalubrity of the climate, the chance of being plundered by the semi-piratical foreign slavers, to say nothing of the danger of a treacherous attack on the part of the natives themselves, weighed heavily against my going in my worthy uncle's mind, but I had set my heart on it, and where there's a will, there's a way.I will not conceal, however, that after all, when it came to the point, I do not believe he would have allowed me to depart, had it not been for a prank of mine, which put him into a towering passion with me about this time.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
