Picking up the narrative from his earlier volume, ""The Early
Exploration of Inland Washington Waters: Journals and Logs from Six
Expeditions, 1786-1792"", Richard Blumenthal once again offers the
reader a fascinating, firsthand look at some of the Northwest's
earliest maritime history. This volume reproduces twelve individual
journals, each composed by one of George Vancouver's men as they
explored the Washington area in 1792. Providing additional details
of exploration in inland areas not previously described, it
contains a record of Peter Puget's observations and explorations of
Puget Sound and a detailed description of William Broughton's
passage through San Juan Islands. These journals also provide
detail regarding the day-to-day onboard activities of both officers
and enlisted men. A brief biographical note is provided at the
beginning of each man's journal.
