A Lady's Cruise: In a French Man-Of-War (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from A Lady's Cruise: In a French Man-of-War

When, in the spring of 1875, Sir Arthur Hamilton Gordon was appointed first Governor of Fiji, I had the good fortune to be invited to form one of the party who accompanied Lady Gordon to that far country.

Two years slipped away, brimful of interest, and each month made me feel more At Home in Fiji, ' more fascinated with its lovely scenery, more content to linger among its isles.
