London Merchant complains that no "fair degree of reciprocity between Great Britain and France was embraced by its stipulations." Post-Treaty events particularly those deriving from the French Revolution "have tended to estrange us further" from successful efforts "to restore the balance." He urges steps to maintain peace with France arguing that British naval superiority as well as the strength of British institutions will encourage trade and a peace advantageous to England. <br/>OCLC 31517031 3- Lib.

London 1818. 8vo. printed for the society; and sold by Williams and Co. . and J. Nisbet Modern half red morocco blue paper sides with a red morocco title label on the front lettered and decorated in gold. With a folding engraved map of the islands in the Southern Pacific Ocean dated June 26 1818. 3 1 blank 8 86 pp. Rare work on the history of Otaheite present day Tahiti and the work of the London Missionary Society LMS in the region in the late 18th and early 19th century. The present edition is the second which was published only a few months after the first but has been significantly enlarged with nearly twice as many pages and a map of the islands in the South Pacific Ocean. It was written by and printed for members of the LMS which is possibly why it is quite rare. We have only been able to find three other copies in sales records of the past hundred years.The London Missionary Society was established in 1795 with the intent to do missionary work in Polynesia. Their first voyage to the South Pacific took place in 1796. Thirty missionaries and their families travelled aboard the ship Duff captained by James Wilson 1760-1814 to the various islands on which they were posted namely Tongatapu the Marquesas Islands and Tahiti. The present work gives a short account of this voyage based on primary sources and tells of the experiences of the missionaries on Tahiti in the years after including conflicts with the locals and the operations of the first printing press in the Pacific Islands which was brought to Tahiti by missionary William Ellis 1794-1872 in 1817. The work also includes a translation of four letters from the converted king Pomare II 1782-1821 dated 1807 1815 1816 and 1817 which were sent to the missionaries.The work is lightly browned throughout. Otherwise in very good condition.l Ferguson 718; Forbes 485; Jisc 5 copies; O'Reilly 7620; WorldCat 54238062 806774363 311107978 220179731 83569659; not in Hill; Kroepelien. unknown
