Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

British Library Cowan, Frank; 1884. 49 p.; 8 . 11602.f.17.(1.)
This book was written in a plain, straightforward and truthful
manner, to tell how a big and brawny man, with many of the vices of
his sex and years and a few of the virtues, went from the backwoods
of Pennsylvania to the South Pole and found, in a volcanic or hot
water wilderness, an isolated oasis of tropic warmth and rare
fertility, containing strange survivals from a bygone geologic age,
and inhabited by a remnant of a former continental people,
enlightened, white-skinned and of surpassing beauty, but voiceless,
a perfect but petticoated paradise, where big and beautiful women
ruled and little and learned men obeyed in a marvelous communistic
government.
