First published in 1927. 'This diary is history' The Observer This
is the first complete published edition of Teonge's Diary. The
edition of 1825, besides omitting several passages, contained many
faulty transcriptions which have now been corrected for this
edition. An intensely human document, enlivened with sketches of
the people he met and places he visited, Teonge's Diary is one of
the finest accounts of life on board ship in the seventeenth
century. When not at sea, Henry Teonge's life was as a parson and
this edition of his Diary includes a full inventory for his Parish,
providing an excellent source of historical and social information
on rural life in the late 1600s.
